Introduction

Combining Laravel and Webigniter is perfect when you want to build a custom website built in Laravel, but you want to provide your users a fast and solid CMS.

Installing Webigniter into your existing Laravel can be done within 2 minutes. In this tutorial we'll show you how to do that.

Before you start, make sure you have created a free Webigniter account, you need it to proceed.

Installation

To get started you need to install the Webigniter Laravel client. You can do that using composer:

composer require webigniter-net/laravel-client

After the installation is finished, you need to set up the license key of your Webigniter account, you can do that by adding 1 line to your .env file:

WEBIGNITER_KEY=YOURKEY

And that's it, the Webigniter client now has been successfully installed into your existing Laravel installation.

To find your license key, you can check our documentation page about finding your license key, else you can proceed on creating your first page.

Sidenote

Please note that these documentation pages are based upon usage in plain PHP. Laravel uses blade templates. You can use the examples used on our documentation pages, but you are also free to translate them into their blade equivalents.
