[FIXED] How to run Laravel from root directory, not from public?

Issue

By default, Laravel project is run from public directory, for this I must enter URL like as:

http://localhost/public/

How to configure Laravel that website will be appeared from: http://localhost/?

Solution

•Go to mainproject/public>>

a.  .htacess
b.  favicon.ico
c.  index.php
d.  robots.txt
e.  web.config

1.cut these 5 files from the public folder, and then paste on the main project folder that’s means out side of public folder… mainproject/files

2.Next after paste ,open index.php ,modify

•require __DIR__.'/…/bootstrap/autoload.php';  to
•require __DIR__.'/bootstrap/autoload.php';

3. modify

   $app = require_once DIR.'/../bootstrap/app.php'; to

   $app = require_once DIR.'/bootstrap/app.php';
