A boiler plate for writing web apps using Laravel and Ember

Overview

The Laravel & Ember Starter Kit is a thoughtfully crafted boilerplate aimed at simplifying the process of developing web applications using the powerful pairing of Laravel and Ember.js. Having worked on multiple projects, the creator recognized the common challenges faced during setup and development, leading to the creation of this efficient starter kit. It is designed to help developers quickly establish an environment for building scaffolded applications with minimal friction.

By following just two straightforward steps - downloading the necessary files and installing the appropriate generators - developers can focus more on coding their applications rather than dealing with the setup intricacies. This kit aims to not only streamline development in a realistic manner but also to provide a structure that facilitates growth and scalability of projects.

Features

  • Simplified Setup: Quickly get started with just two commands to set up both Laravel and Ember.js environments.
  • Laravel Integration: Utilizes composer.json to manage Laravel dependencies, including Jeffery Way's Laravel 4 Generator for efficient feature generation.
  • Ember.js Integration: Installs the Ember/Laravel Generator via npm, ensuring all JavaScript dependencies are automatically managed and configured.
  • Scaffolding Support: Automatically creates the required directory structure for the Ember application, along with a Gruntfile to streamline front-end operations.
  • Focused Development: Facilitates a streamlined development process, allowing developers to concentrate on building features rather than configuration issues.
  • Open to Contributions: The project encourages feedback and contributions from the community, highlighting an open-source spirit that can enhance and refine the kit.
  • Future Enhancements: An outlined checklist for potential improvements indicates a roadmap for continuous enhancement of the kit's capabilities.
