Usage

This package provides view for auth and app. Take a look at resources/views/layouts/app.blade.php.

In this file you can extends global section like user name, avatar, breadcrumbs, and menu.

To extends menu add this in app.blade.php

@section('sidebar-menu')
<ul class="sidebar-menu">
  <li class="header">MAIN NAVIGATOR</li>
  <li class="active">
    <a href="{{ route('home') }}">
      <i class="fa fa-home"></i>
      <span>Home</span>
    </a>
  </li>
</ul>
@endsection

To extends breadcrumbs add this

@section('breadcrumbs')
<ol class="breadcrumb">
  <li><a href="#"><i class="fa fa-dashboard"></i> Home</a></li>
  <li class="active">Title</li>

@endsection

This package give you free of choice to use any Laravel Package for Menu and Breadcrumb. We recommend spatie/laravel-menu or lavary/laravel-menu, and davejamesmiller/laravel-breadcrumbs.

Any new created page should extends this view.

@extends('layouts.app')

// Your blade here
