- easily create new column types

- translatable models (multi-language)
- have multiple fields per line

But professionals don't love Backpack just because it's feature-packed. They also love it because it's ridiculously easy to overwrite a functionality. Generally, you just need to create a function with the right name or create a blade file with the right name. Yes, it can be _that_ easy. See why thousands of Laravel professionals have been using Backpack, every day, since 2016.
## Screenshots
The GIF above should give you with a good idea about what Backpack will help you build. But you can also see it in action in our [live demo](https://demo.backpackforlaravel.com/admin), to get a deeper understanding of how Backpack admin panels look & feel and the amount of features it provides.
## Getting started
Start with the ["Getting Started" series](https://backpackforlaravel.com/docs/4.0/introduction) in our docs. We try to nudge you towards creating a Backpack acccount, but you don't _need_ one, if you're just trying it out.
Alternatively, if you don't have 20 minutes right now, subscribe to our [drip email tutorial](https://backpackforlaravel.com/getting-started-emails). You'll receive one email per day, for 5 days, 5 minutes each. By the end, you'll be familiar with how Backpack works, and be able to create admin panels for your Laravel apps.
> ### Security updates and breaking changes
> If you're using Backpack in production, please **[subscribe to the Backpack Newsletter](http://backpackforlaravel.com/newsletter)** so you can find out about any security updates, breaking changes or major features. We never _ever_ share your email with anyone & we try to send as few emails as possible (1-4 emails per year). We hate unsolicited email too. But... you know... you're building an admin panel, security _should_ be something you're up-to-date with.
## Install
---
## Requirements
If you can run Laravel 8, you can install Backpack. Backpack does _not_ have additional requirements. For the following process, we assume:
- you have a [working installation of Laravel](https://laravel.com/docs/7.x#installation) (an existing project is fine, you don't need a *fresh* Laravel install);
- you have configured your .ENV file with your database and mail information;
- you can run the command from any directory (you have registered as a global command); if you need to run or reference another directory, please remember to adapt the commands below to your configuration;
## Installation
### Install Core Packages
0) Open your project folder in your terminal:
1) In your project's main directory:
> Backpack install is interactive and will ask questions during instalation, if you don't want that add the `--no-interaction` argument to the install command.
## Change Log
For the current release (4.1.x) please see [the Releases tab](https://github.com/Laravel-Backpack/CRUD/releases). For previous versions (Backpack <=4.0.x), please see our old [CHANGELOG](CHANGELOG.md) file.

- - **FREE upgrade; MINOR breaking changes**; historically every 6-12 months; upgrading takes less than 30 minutes; it allows us to add big new features, for free;
- - **FREE upgrade; NO breaking changes**; historically every week; upgrading can be done automatically with composer; includes bug fixes and non-breaking new features;
