6. Serve the project from your PHP web root.

Example local URL:

If you host the project in a subdirectory, set APP_URL to that full base URL.

Common optional settings:

Change this immediately after import.

This repository is prepared so environment secrets and runtime files stay out of Git:

• .env is ignored

Keep production secrets only in .env or server environment variables.
