Laravel 5.1 app and home.blade.php missing

Question

I created a new project via composer in Laravel 5.1.
I couldn't find the app.blade.php.and home.blade.php file, what am I doing wrong?

Solution 1

You didn't do anything wrong. The Auth Scaffolding was removed from Laravel 5.1. That includes the app.blade.php and the home.blade.php that you mentioned.

However, you'll still be able to get it back with the Scafold Package :

1.Add Scafold to your composer.json file in the require : section :

require : {
        "laravel/framework": "5.1.*",
        "bestmomo/scafold": "dev-master"
}

or type from terminal :

composer require bestmomo/scafold dev-master

2.Update composer :

composer update

3.Add the service provider to your config/app.php :

Bestmomo\Scafold\ScafoldServiceProvider::class,

4.Publish the views and assets :

php artisan vendor:publish

Done!

Solution 2

Run php artisan make:auth and it will automatically generate layoyts\app.blade.php and home.blade.php

home.blade.php and other auth scaffolding stuff is not in 5.1 anymore. You have to add it manually. The app folder should exist though...

It would be very useful if you could tell us what commands you used to create the project.

Why did they remove it??

[Mark]

@MicroR I think the removed it because some preferred the installation to be more barebones with less clutter/bloat, similar to comparable frameworks.

@MicroR: I definitely think they at least should have added an officially supported package or parameter to include that old rather than just removing it altogether. I ended up making a 5.0 installation and copying the files to my 5.1 app while I am learning Laravel.

This is much simpler, and many web apps need authentication anyways, so it's no bloat. Thank you!!

@Mark, seems like the actually have, see Sambhav's answer

[Mark]

@chiccodoro Yup. I'm now working on a laravel 5.4 project and that is the method I use. They also have some nice documentation on setting it up
