A Laravel 5.8 starter kit that scaffolds a ready-to-use REST API with JWT authentication, built on JWT-Auth, Dingo API, and Laravel-CORS. It ships preconfigured auth controllers and routes for login, signup, token refresh, and password recovery.

Use cases

• bootstrap a laravel rest api with jwt auth
• scaffold an api-only laravel app in seconds
• set up token-based authentication endpoints quickly
• starting point for a mobile app backend api
• learn how to structure a laravel api project

When to choose

• you are starting a new Laravel 5.8 API project and want auth wired up out of the box
• you want a quick reference for integrating jwt-auth, Dingo, and CORS in Laravel

When to avoid

• you use a modern Laravel version (8+), since this targets Laravel 5.8 and is unmaintained
• you need actively maintained security-critical auth code
• you prefer building your API stack from scratch or with newer packages like Sanctum
