Creating a Simple Website with laravel

Laravel is a php framework as you all know, a lite one at that. I love using it because it is very easy to learn and it save time too when using it for web development project. Laravel is one of the best php framework among others. It support mvc. It is easy to install and so on.
Laravel installation is simple. Xampp or homesteads may be used as a local server. It is recommended to use homestead when developing. Although is also ok with xampp and wamp servers.
This tutorial will help you create a simple website using laravel php framework. For this will help you understand the basic and how it work before creating complex task with the excellent framework.
We are going to used laravel 5.3 for this tutorial. Before you continue this tutorial make sure you have a little knownledge of mvc pattern
Step one to creating a basic laravel website
Let create a controller that will handle functions that will may likely used on our page
To make a controller in laravel is pretty simple using php artisan. If you using windows, Go to start->cmd-> navigate to the root of your website project (eg. Cd c:/xampp/htdocs/project). When you are there type “php artisan make:controller mycontrolller”
Once you have successfully created this controller, navigate to the folder of the laravel web project (app/http/controllers) where the controller created using php artisan is located.
Now we now have our controller ready. Lets now route the url. Routing is a method of handling all url that comes into laravel website. Whatsoever url that you link to laravel website with making available in route.php, the url will be considered invalid. When you route the url, it will take you to method in the controller you may have specified to handle the type of website page that the user will see.
Route in laravel 5.3 is located at “routes/web.php” older laravel version has it at “app/http/routes.php
  web.php or routes.php
Route::get('/','Mycontroller@index');
Paste the  above code in web.php as route. This means that whenever the first page of the website is visit (which is localhost/webproject/public) the method (index) which we are yet to create on my controller should handle it.
Now open myController (app/http/controller/myController) in here create a function or method that will handle the url that was entered
Public function index(){
Return view(‘index’);
}
Paste the above code on myController.php and it will return index.blade.php which we are yet to create as the html view that will be return.
now let’s create the index.blade.php. go to “resources/views/”  create index.blade.php file in this folder
 now run the website  just by typing “localhost/project/public”
Step two creating basic laravel website
Web.php  or route.php
Route::get('about','mycontroller@forAbout');
Put that code on web.php or route.php which will call on forAbout() method on myController.php controller.
myController.php
Public function forAbout(){
Return view(‘about’);
}
The above method or function in laravel will return a html page or php page normally created created in the format of blade.php.
About.blade.php
<html>
<head>
<title>the title</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>the is the  about page. Go <a href=”public”>home/</a></h1>
</body>
To test our website go to “localhost/websiteproject/about”
The about.blade.php is a view or basically a html page that will be return to the user through url. Later on the blog you will learn more about laravel framework. Hope this tutorial was helpful any complaint don’t forget to drop at the comment box.

Using Google font locally (offline)

Google font is an online tools that provide an API to customized and used different kinds of web font on a website. The font is tested in various browsers and there is assurance that those font provided will work on  on all browsers across different display system. It is very easy to customized your desired font and apply it straight to your website with ease. For the fact that the font is customized, it does not slow down website and is reliable because it was developed and maintained by Google. Another benefit of this Google font is the fact that it can be used locally during a website development on local server.
Using Google font locally means that the various font provided by this Google tools will work on the web page even when the computer is not connected to internet. Before you continue to make sure you under css 3 @font face selector rules. This allow a customized font such as Google font to be loaded on a web page.
The first step  is to understand how Google font works. Before getting it to works on a local computer or offline browser one should have the knowledge that the tools allows you to download a particular font on and embedded it to the targeted web page and get it to work using css @font face rule. The process of doing all these is what I will discuss with you on the next paragraph.
Go to font.google.com and you will see list of web site font that you can actually get it work on your own website. Right now there are about 815 font available for you all for free. There are several way you can actually customized it by changing  the size, bold and so on. And you can actually check the font on alphabet, numerals, paragraph to see how it styles computer characters.

Once you have found the font that you actually likes, click on the plus (+) button attached to the font  tray that automatically show at the bottom of the page with a label of one and family selected. Click on the label, once the tray opens up, you should see a downloaded icon at the left hand side of the page click on it to download.

Now that you have download it, unzip and save it to your website project folder. Then write the following code on your css file

@font-face {
  font-family: 'myfont';
  src: url('Reem_Kufi/ReemKufi-Regular.ttf' );
}
The code above change the name of the font to myfont for references purpose if you understand how @font-face work that should not be an issue and src::url() will link to the location of the folder of the font, the name and format of the font.
Select a tag with which you want to apply the font to and style using the name given to the font.
a {
  font-family: myfont;
  color: #1FB57B;
}
This is exactly how to get google font working on your local machine and if you have any issues or complain do let me know at the comment box and be aware that when you are developing using internet connection i recommend embedding the font directly from google website.
