All configuration is managed through the .env file in the project root. Copy .env.example to .env and update the values for your environment.
App settings
Core application identity and runtime behaviour.
| Variable | Default | Description |
|---|
APP_NAME | Laravel | Application name displayed in the UI and emails. |
APP_ENV | local | Runtime environment. Use production on live servers. |
APP_KEY | (empty) | 32-character encryption key. Generated by php artisan key:generate. Must not be empty. |
APP_DEBUG | true | When true, detailed error pages are shown. Set to false in production. |
APP_TIMEZONE | UTC | Default timezone for dates and times throughout the application. |
APP_URL | http://localhost | Full base URL used in generated links and emails. |
APP_LOCALE | en | Default locale for translations. |

APP_MAINTENANCE_DRIVER | file | Storage driver for maintenance mode state (file or database). |
BCRYPT_ROUNDS | 12 | Cost factor for bcrypt password hashing. Higher values are slower but more secure. |
Never set APP_DEBUG=true or APP_ENV=local on a production server. Doing so exposes stack traces and environment variables to end users.
Logging
| Variable | Default | Description |
|---|
LOG_CHANNEL | stack | Primary log channel. The stack channel aggregates multiple channels. |
LOG_STACK | single | Channels included when LOG_CHANNEL=stack. |

To use SQLite instead of MySQL, set DB_CONNECTION=sqlite and DB_DATABASE to the absolute path of your .sqlite file, for example /absolute/path/to/database/database.sqlite. The DB_HOST, DB_PORT, DB_USERNAME, and DB_PASSWORD variables are ignored for SQLite.

Front-end
| Variable | Default | Description |

VITE_APP_NAME | ${APP_NAME} | Application name variable inherited from the standard Laravel skeleton. |
This project uses Laravel Mix (Webpack) as its asset bundler, not Vite. The VITE_APP_NAME variable is present in .env.example because it is part of the default Laravel 11 skeleton, but it has no effect on the compiled assets. Front-end environment variables are not currently used in the build configuration (webpack.mix.js).
