Laravel is a free, open-source PHP web framework, created by Taylor Otwell and intended for the development of web applications following the model–view–controller (MVC) architectural pattern

Some of the features of Laravel are a modular packaging system with a dedicated dependency manager, different ways for accessing relational databases, utilities that aid in application deployment and maintenance, and its orientation toward syntactic sugar

Deployment

Once you are ready to deploy your app, you will need to create an account with a cloud platform to host it. These are not the only choices, but they are my top picks. From my experience, Heroku is the easiest to get started with, deployments and custom domain support on free accounts.

1-Step Deployment with Heroku

• Download and install Heroku Toolbelt
• In terminal, run heroku login and enter your Heroku credentials
• From your app directory run heroku create
• Create a Procfile in your app root. All this file needs to contain is web: vendor/bin/heroku-php-nginx public if you prefer to use nginx. or web: vendor/bin/heroku-php-apache2 public if you prefer to use Apache.
• Run heroku addons:add heroku-postgresql:dev to add a Postgres database to your heroku app from your terminal
• Lastly, do git push heroku master. Done!
• Run artisan commands on heroku like so heroku run php artisan migrate

Note: To install Heroku add-ons your account must be verified.

• Create an account at https://www.openshift.com/
• Create a Laravel application with mysql-5.5 or postgresql-9.2
  • $ rhc app create laravelapp php-5.4 mysql-5.5 --from-code=https://github.com/iamraphson/DEV-TV
• And you are done!

• Login to Windows Azure Management Portal
• Click the + NEW button on the bottom left of the portal
• Click COMPUTE, then WEB APP, then QUICK CREATE
• Enter a name for URL and select the datacenter REGION for your web site
• Click on CREATE WEB APP button
• Once the web site status changes to Running, click on the name of the web site to access the Dashboard
• At the bottom right of the Quickstart page, select Set up a deployment from source control
• Select Local Git repository from the list, and then click the arrow
• To enable Git publishing, Azure will ask you to create a user name and password
• Once the Git repository is ready, you will be presented with a GIT URL
• Inside your DEV-TV directory, run git remote add azure [Azure Git URL]
• To push your changes simply run git push azure master
• Note: You will be prompted for the password you created earlier
• On Deployments tab of your Windows Azure Web App, you will see the deployment history
