I need a Laravel or OctoberCMS files and folders view on website front-end. I can use Phoca Download in Joomla to allow users to navigate folders and download files in the folders. Which Laravel or OctoberCMS library I can use to achieve almost similar behavior?
In case of Laravel:
First of all Laravel is not a CMS, its actually a framework to develop web applications rapidly. You can get file manager packages for laravel, there are lots of packages/libraries and tools for Laravel but gain you have to manually install and manage those packages in your intended way.
Laravel File Management - Usefull Links:
1) laravel-filemanager
2) laravel-elfinder
3) laravel-medialibrary
You might like Laravel File Manager
There is huge difference between framework and CMSs. CMS does have easy to install modules/extensions for a particular problem and frameworks too. But most of the time you have to implement best library or package for your framework on your own and use available functionalities on your own.
Laravel has its own native file management system included with Laravel framework:
Laravel File System
Random Link: Use Laravel-filemanager without editor
You can develop your own plugins like Phoca on Laravel Framework or you can simply utilize one of the available library to update and configure file system as Phoca
We have build a Download Manager for October
http://octobercms.com/plugin/inetis-downloadmanager
you will find a demo here : https://demo.inetis.ch/plugins/download-manager
It could fit your needs

I am trying to install Now-UI-Kit in Laravel 5.6 with vue.js implementation but not having any success.
URL to Now-UI-Kit: https://demos.creative-tim.com/now-ui-kit/index.html
I was able to install the plain UI Kit by following some very simple steps documented here:
UI Kit Here: https://getuikit.com/
Laravel Steps: https://github.com/kawax/laravel-uikit
But I couldn't do similar steps for the now-ui-kit.
Both UI KIt and Now-UI-KIt are installed with NPM in node_modules.
Can someone please guide?
Alright - turned out to be a simple task. Put all the css files in a sub directory under your assets folder and point to them in app.scss. laravel-mix will take care of them automatically.
I'm a webdeveloper and I'm starting a huge project requested by a company.
I'm trying to figure out if is best to use a PHP framework or not, and in case, which one.
I know Codeigniter, but I wanted to look around to see what's the best framework at the moment. I found out Laravel is trending at the top so I wanted to try it out.
Being used to Codeigniter I usually download the zip file with all the phps inside and start working. I'm trying to do the same with Laravel but I saw you are to download and use composer to install it.
I'm not really used to the Terminal and I wanted to ask if that's the only way of installing it or if there is a downloadable version as in Codeigniter, CakePHP, etc...
You can always download the ZIPped code directly from project's GitHub site. You can find the base application here: https://github.com/laravel/laravel - you'll find a link at the bottom of the right column. This code is what composer downloads when you use that to setup the application.
If you want to use Laravel you will have to use Composer as this is what the application uses to manage its dependencies. It's not hard, as you'll only need to run a few commands.
You can learn more about how to install and use composer in the docs: https://getcomposer.org/download/
I understand this is Laravel's core, but when you want to create a Laravel application you need download this, create a project via composer, or whatever.
This question might be stupid, but, where is the actual core in a Laravel project? Meaning that I can't browse through the application's folder to find it, whereas I am pretty sure I could do it in other frameworks such as CodeIgniter, core folder maybe?.
So where is the kernel? How is all linked so that the application works?
When you composer install, it downloads it to this directory:
vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate
I am building my application in Codeigniter. It has a module where users create documents, which can be edited at a later time. How do I implement a 'history' of revisions, perhaps like a wiki ? Is it possible to embed a php wiki in a web app (twiki/dokuwiki)?
Consider embeding a wiki into your application so that you don't have to create your own wiki-like functionality from scratch. I know dooWikis enables you to do this without displaying any third-party branding or advertising on your site while still giving you control over who gets to make changes to the content.
