LaravelFS - Community Laravel Full Starter-kits Installer compatible with Laravel 12

LaravelFS was born from the idea of "Laravel Full Starter Kits" (or Full Stack) LOL – a way to bring back the legacy starter kits like Breeze and Jetstream that were removed from the official Laravel Installer, while still supporting the new Laravel 12 starter kits and community starter kits via --using.

Disclaimer: This installer is not officially supported by the Laravel team. It's a community-driven alternative that extends the Laravel Installer by supporting abandoned starter kits like Breeze and Jetstream, as well as community starter kits via --using.
We strive to keep it up-to-date with Laravel's official installer while offering extended flexibility.

Attribution: LaravelFS is based on the open-source laravel/installer project, licensed under MIT.

Official Documentation

LaravelFS functions similarly to the Laravel Installer but with extra capabilities.

Features:

• Install Laravel projects just like the official installer.
• Support for Breeze and Jetstream, even if they are abandoned.
• Install community starter kits via --using (Packagist or git URL).
• Save and reuse project setups with Templates.
• Easily remove saved templates when no longer needed.
• Ensure that provided starter kits are Composer packages of type project.
• CLI command to fetch additional details about a starter kit package.

For Laravel's official installation guide, refer to the Laravel documentation.

• Extra flags like --typescript, --ssr, --api, etc.

Viewing Saved Templates

Installing Community Starter Kits

LaravelFS allows you to install community Laravel starter kits by providing a package name or git URL:

What qualifies as a Laravel starter kit?
A starter kit should provide a full Laravel project setup. Packagist packages should be Composer packages of type project and published on Packagist (Submit your package here).
