Backstage

Appearance

Welcome, Backstage ​

The CMS build for Laravel developers.

Install ​

You can install backstage in any (new) Laravel project or start from scratch. If you already have a (Laravel) website running you can skip step 1. You can also use our Backstage Installer.

Step 1. (Optional) Create a new Laravel app. ​

bash
laravel new my-website

Step 2. Require backstage/cms ​

bash
composer require backstage/cms

Note: For now you may have to update composer.json to:

json
    "repositories": {
        "laravel-redirects": {
            "type": "vcs",
            "url": "git@github.com:backstagephp/laravel-redirects.git"
        },
        "filament-redirects": {
            "type": "vcs",
            "url": "git@github.com:backstagephp/redirects.git"
        },
        "backstage/media": {
            "type": "vcs",
            "url": "git@github.com:backstagephp/media.git"
        },
        "backstage/fields": {
            "type": "vcs",
            "url": "git@github.com:backstagephp/fields.git"
        },
        "backstage": {
            "type": "vcs",
            "url": "git@github.com:backstagephp/core.git"
        }
    },
    "minimum-stability": "dev",

Step 3. Run migrations and add default settings and content ​

bash
php artisan backstage:install

Step 4. (Optional) Remove or comment the default Laravel routes: ​

php
// routes/web.php

// Route::get('/', function () {
//    return view('welcome');
//});

Advanced setup ​

You can publish the migrations with:

bash
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="backstage-migrations"
php artisan migrate

You can publish the config file with:

bash
php artisan vendor:publish --tag="backstage-config"
