   composer create-project laravel/laravel=5.0.22 mixtapes --prefer-dist
   

   ..then do database, migrations, etc

2. add in cms to composer:

   composer require 'bootleg/cms:dev-master'
   

3. Remove contents of default laravel routes file:

   app/Http/routes.php
   

4. Add in service providers: config/app.php:

   //service providers
   'Bootleg\Cms\CmsServiceProvider', 
   'Collective\Html\HtmlServiceProvider'
   

   //aliasses
   'Form' => 'Collective\Html\FormFacade', 
   'Html' => 'Collective\Html\HtmlFacade',
   

5. Register permissions middleware: app/Http/Kernal.php:

   'permissions' => 'Bootleg\Cms\Middleware\Permissions',
   

6. Publish assets for cms:

   php artisan vendor:publish
   

7. composer dump-autoload to make sure you've got all the migrations and config files included.

   composer dump-autoload
   

===

You then should set up the database:

8. Run migration:

   php artisan migrate
   

9. Run seeding:

   php artisan db:seed --class="Bootleg\Cms\BootlegSeeder"
   

===

####You then need to make a theme or plugin.

######via Laravel 4.2's workbench: You can still use laravel 4's workbench to set up a theme.

1. composer.json:

   composer require "illuminate/workbench:dev-master"
   

2. Add in service provider:

   "Illuminate\Workbench\WorkbenchServiceProvider", 
   

3. Create workbench config file config/workbench.php

   <?php
   return [
       'name' => 'Simon Davies',
       'email' => 'whatever@whatever.com',
   ];
   

   ..and composer dump-autoload

4. Add run workbench command to create a workbench item:

   php artisan workbench vendor/package --resources
   

5. Add this into composer.json

   "autoload": {
       "classmap": [
           "workbench/vendor/package/src"
           ..
       ]
   }
   

6. Optionally add this into the plugins table OR You can include it into config/app.php

######via Manual: You can of course create a plugin manually with whatever structure makes sense to you.. A base template for a theme can be found here: Sample theme.
