Laravel Installation

Open terminal and run this command to create a laravel project.

It will create a project folder with name myblog inside your local system.

To start the development server of laravel –

php artisan serve

URL: http://127.0.0.1:8000

Assuming laravel already installed inside your system.

Create a Reusable Component File

Create components folder inside /resources/views.

Create a file with name message.blade.php inside /components folder.

Open message.blade.php and write this code into it.

<div class="panel {{ $class }}">
    <div class="panel-heading">{{ $title }}</div>
    <div class="panel-body">{{ $slot }}</div>
</div>

Here, we have 3 placeholders as $class, $title and $slot.

When we will use this component then according to usage type we will replace these placeholder values.

Create a Layout File

Create a my-template.blade.php blade layout file inside /resources/views folder.

Open my-template.blade.php and write this code into it.
