• Web server's document / web root to be the public directory. 
• The index.php in this directory serves as the front controller 
for all HTTP requests entering your application.
− Configuration Files
• All of the configuration files for the Laravel framework are 
stored in the config directory. 
− Directory Permissions
• Directories within the storage and the bootstrap/cache
directories should be writable by your web server or Laravel 
will not run.

Configuration
− Application Key
• Set your application key to a random string. 
• If you installed Laravel via Composer or the Laravel 
installer, this key has already been set for you by the php 
artisan key: generate command.
• Typically, this string should be 32 characters long. 
• The key can be set in the .env environment file.
