In this course, I'm going to show you how to deploy an application like this to Laravel Forge. This is running locally at the moment and all it's doing is just broadcasting a message through to our backend and then of course delivering that to all clients. Now I've purposely kept this course in very small chunks so you can go ahead and bookmark it

and refer back to any steps in the future. But we're going to cover every step that you need to take to get this kind of application or any real-time application up and running on Forge. Forge makes it really easy to do this with its predefined setup,

but there are a couple of things that we need to configure. So let's go over to the next couple of episodes and get this pulled down and working locally if you want to follow along and then we'll go ahead and create a server, get it configured so we can have real-time production.

Episode summary

Welcome to the course! In this episode, we kick things off by talking about what you'll learn. We're going to take an application (like a real-time chat or something similar that broadcasts messages to clients) and get it deployed to Laravel Forge. This way, you'll know exactly how to go from running your app locally to having it live in production.

I've kept the lessons nice and bite-sized, so you can easily come back and revisit any step you need. We'll walk through everything you need to get a real-time app up and running, covering all the key configuration bits that Forge makes simple—but there are still a couple of details to get right.

If you want to follow along, we’ll set things up locally first, and then we’ll move on to creating and configuring your server on Forge for real-time production use. Let’s get started!
