To install a Laravel package from GitHub, you can follow the steps below:

  1. Find the package you want to install on GitHub and copy the repository URL.
  2. Open your Laravel project and navigate to the root directory using a terminal or command prompt.
  3. Run the following composer command, replacing 'package-url' with the repository URL you copied:
1
composer require package-url


For example, if you wanted to install a package with the repository URL https://github.com/vendor/package, you would run:

1
composer require vendor/package


  1. Composer will fetch the package from GitHub and install it in your Laravel project.
  2. After the installation is complete, you may need to publish any configuration files or assets that come with the package. Refer to the package documentation for instructions on how to do this.


That's it! You have now successfully installed a Laravel package from GitHub.
