How to deploy Laravel application on AWS? I have created a new project on AWS instance. I have basic Laravel application installed now. Should I move all the local files to AWS instance via FTP or is there any better way to do it?
@dixitchopra You might want to read up on modern deployment techniques such as setting up a Git repository on your external server and pulling down changes there using a deployment script. Failing that, you could look at a service like Forge that does the heavy lifting for you.
as @martinbean suggested, Forge is your best bet. I run sites on aws and use Forge for deployments
@martinbean that sounds cool. Can you elaborate for a noob? Does Forge give you the option to deploy to AWS?
@csuarez, yes it does.
To get an idea of how everything with Forge works, check out these vids:
thanks @martinbean just finished downloading the tutorials.
Hmm, Forge for AWS???
One month ago Forge provisional script didn't work for AWS so i ended up doing all hard work there manually. Are you sure it works for AWS at the very moment?
