Laravel-12 Multiple Dashboard Premium

If you’ve found a Laravel project on GitHub that you’d like to explore or customize, this step-by-step guide will show you exactly how to clone and run a Laravel 12 project on your local computer.

We’ll use the example repository:
👉 StarCodeKh/Laravel-12-Multiple-Dashboard-Premium

Prerequisites

Before starting, make sure you have these tools installed on your system:

Git — to clone the repository
PHP 8.1+ — required by Laravel 12
Composer — for PHP dependency management
MySQL or another supported database

If you’re on macOS, you can install missing tools easily using Homebrew.

Step 1 — Clone the Laravel project

You can clone using either HTTPS


git clone https://github.com/StarCodeKh/Laravel-12-Multiple-Dashboard-Premium.git

Then move into the project directory:


cd LLaravel-12-Multiple-Dashboard-Premium

Step 2 — Install PHP dependencies

Laravel uses Composer to manage backend packages.

Run:


composer install

Step 3 — Copy the environment file

Laravel uses a .env file for configuration.
Copy the example file:


cp .env.example .env

Step 4 — Generate the application key

This key helps secure your Laravel app:


php artisan key:generate

Step 5 — Configure the database

Update the database section:


DB_CONNECTION=mysql
DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
DB_PORT=3306
DB_DATABASE=laravel_db
DB_USERNAME=root
DB_PASSWORD=

Then create that database in MySQL or phpMyAdmin:


CREATE DATABASE hr_system;

Step 6 — Run database migrations

To create tables defined by Laravel:


php artisan migrate

Step 7 — Create a storage link

This command makes uploaded files accessible:


php artisan storage:link

Step 8 — Run the Laravel development server

Start the app:


php artisan serve

You’ll see:


Starting Laravel development server: http://127.0.0.1:8000

Open your browser and go to
👉 http://127.0.0.1:8000

Troubleshooting

Permission denied:
```
chmod -R 775 storage bootstrap/cache
```
Missing .env variables:
Run php artisan config:clear
Server not starting:
Make sure PHP ≥ 8.1 and Composer are properly installed.

Final Result

You now have a fully working Laravel 12 project cloned from GitHub — ready for customization or development.
