With the recent release of Laravel Forge, Envoyer and Homestead, it has never been easier to go from nothing to something with an easy to use PHP Framework. This talk will cover creating a basic Laravel application using the Laravel specific Vagrant box "Homestead", connecting to a server (Linode, Rackspace, Digital Ocean), and deploying the application via Forge. The talk will also cover tips and tricks on customizing Homestead to fit custom needs as well as how to use Forge & Envoyer to deploy new versions of our application.
