Demploy Laravel project to web hosting

I am confused !!

What are the steps to deploy a laravel project to a web hosting ? I tried AWS EC2 without success.

My development environment is XAMPP (windows). I want to deploy to Linux Server.

Looking for a step by step document.

You should try forge.laravel.com

To deploy to Linux (any flavour) the easiest route is install Composer then bring Laravel in directly using https://laravel.com/docs/5.3/installation.

Forge is OK however depending on your needs it is often bloated with functionality you don't need.

The laravel deploy link is not detailed and miss a lot of things to be done on the server side. The link is good for new project.

Is there any good guide on how to do this step by step ?

The problem I've had with Forge is that although it sets up the server perfectly, unless I'm mistaken it doesn't seem to do any sort of Operating/Package or system/security updates (or alert you to those that need doing?) Probably not the right place for this however just looking for some clarification from a forge user @FWSimon ?

Please or to participate in this conversation.
