# Download Code and Install on Your Web-Server If your code is finished generating, you should see a menu item in the left sidebar called **Download Full Code**. ![](https://laraveldaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/download-full-code-sidebar.png) Clicking it will initialize a download of full ZIP archive for your Laravel project, also showing a modal window with **Installation instructions**. ![](https://laraveldaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/download-full-code-instructions.png) Then, you should unzip the archive and put the files in your web-server folder, configured for Laravel. Code structure should look something like this: ![](https://laraveldaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/download-full-code-unarchive.png) Finally, you need to perform a set of Laravel-related commands in **Terminal** to install the project. These commands are typical to ANY Laravel project, and are not specific to QuickAdminPanel-generated code - we are trying to stick to standards. 1. Run **cp .env.example .env** command to copy example into real **.env** file, then edit it with DB credentials and other settings you want 2. Run **composer install** command 3. Run **php artisan migrate --seed** command. Seed is important, because it will create the first admin user for you. 4. Run **php artisan key:generate** command 5. If you have file/photo upload fields, run **php artisan storage:link** command 6. And that's it, go to your domain and login with these credentials: ** - password** ![](https://laraveldaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/download-full-code-install.png) ![](https://laraveldaily.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/03/download-full-code-login.png) ## System Requirements We generate typical Laravel code, so it requires the same things as general Laravel installation - see [official Laravel documentaion](https://laravel.com/docs/master/installation#server-requirements). **Minimum PHP version**: * PHP 7.2.5 for Laravel 7 * PHP 7.2 for Laravel 6 * PHP 7.1.3 for Laravel 5.8/5.7/5.6 If you have file/photo upload fields in CRUDs, we also require **MySQL 5.7.8+** or **MariaDB 10.2.7+** with JSON columns support, cause we use [Spatie Laravel Medialibrary](https://github.com/spatie/laravel-medialibrary) for file storage, and it requires JSON columns for "media" DB table with [polymorphic relationship](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rx1DQBE01b0). Also, at the time of writing, Spatie Medialibrary v7 has dependency to its PDF-to-image package which requires **Imagemagick PHP library**. Here are instructions how to install Imagemagick - for [Ubuntu](https://ourcodeworld.com/articles/read/645/how-to-install-imagick-for-php-7-in-ubuntu-16-04), and for [Windows](https://mlocati.github.io/articles/php-windows-imagick.html). Or you can run installation with special flag:\ **composer install --ignore-platform-reqs** ## Configuring domain and public folder Official [Laravel installation guide](https://laravel.com/docs/master/installation#configuration) says this: After installing Laravel, you should configure your web server's document / web root to be the **public** directory. The **index.php** in this directory serves as the front controller for all HTTP requests entering your application.\ So you need to configure your web-server domain to point to **/public** of the downloaded project. Example domain configuration lines from [Laravel Homestead](https://laravel.com/docs/master/homestead) file **Homestead.yaml**: ``` - map: laravel-local.test to: /home/vagrant/Code/laravel-local/public ``` Here's domain setup instruction for other web-servers: * [Laravel Valet](https://laravel.com/docs/master/valet#serving-sites) * [Laragon](https://laragon.org/docs/pretty-urls.html) * [XAMPP](https://coupontree.co/what-is-virtual-host-how-to-configure-virtual-host-in-xampp/) * [MAMP Pro](https://documentation.mamp.info/en/MAMP-PRO-Mac/Settings/Hosts/General/) Lastly, don't forget to add your domain as **.env** file as **APP\_URL** value: ``` APP_URL=http://laravel-local.test ``` For more details about Laravel project installation on **production** server, please refer to our two articles: * [How to Deploy Laravel Projects to Live Server: The Ultimate Guide](https://laraveldaily.com/how-to-deploy-laravel-projects-to-live-server-the-ultimate-guide/) * [What Server is Needed to Deploy Laravel Projects](https://laraveldaily.com/what-server-is-needed-to-deploy-laravel-projects/) If you encounter any error in the process, please read error message carefully - it may be related to misconfiguration in your server (older PHP version, missing config value etc.). If you can't resolve the problem by yourself, please message us via live-chat or email ****, describing the problem with as many details as you can. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
