   I like how php based apps are deployed here

   I have tested other solutions , and I had some issues with Nginx because it was giving me 405 error everytime someone tried to make a post request to my server url, but with Laravel Forge that didn't happen and it was all smooth and successful.

• I know how to make a web app. I don't know how to deploy it
