Step 1 - Install Laravel

Step 2 - Generate User Data

Now we are going to create testing data with Tinker command. Open your terminal and let's follow below code

php artisan tinker
  
User::factory()->count(30)->create()

Step 3 - Create Controller File

This step we will create a controller file, and should name UserController.php file. In the controller we will create two methods and implement each action required. Let's check and see the following flow to create file and update code below:

Open terminal and command below:

php artisan make:controller UserController

Then check or paste below code:

Open file app -> Http -> Controllers -> UserController.php

<?php
   
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
    
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\Models\User;
    
class UserController extends Controller
{

    public function index()
    {        
        $users = User::paginate(5);
        return view('users', compact('users'));
    }

    public function show($id)
    {
        $user = User::find($id); 
        return response()->json($user);
    }
}

Step 4 - Add Mapping Route

We will add route to web.php to tell where controller and method point to correct URL.

Open file routes -> web.php

<?php
  
use Illuminate\Support\Facades\Route;
  
use App\Http\Controllers\UserController;
  
/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Web Routes
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Here is where you can register web routes for your application. These
| routes are loaded by the RouteServiceProvider within a group which
| contains the "web" middleware group. Now create something great!
|
*/
  
Route::get('/users', [UserController::class, 'index']);
Route::get('/users/{id}', [UserController::class, 'show'])->name('show');

Step 5 - Create View (Blade File)

Now we are going to create HTML to render as UI, so in Laravel we have to create a blade file as view.

Create file resources -> views -> index.blade.php
