LaravelDaily/laravel-roles-permissions-manager
Laravel 6 adminpanel starter boilerplate project with roles-permissions management.
A Laravel 6 admin boilerplate wired up with Spatie's laravel-permission package, giving you users, roles, and permissions out of the box with a CoreUI frontend. It's a clone-and-extend starter, not a package — you get the full source and build on top of it. Aimed at developers who want a working auth/RBAC foundation without hand-rolling it.
Spatie's permission package is the right choice here — it's well-maintained, battle-tested, and the integration is done correctly with proper Gates and @can usage. The project structure follows standard Laravel conventions with no clever tricks to untangle. Form Requests for validation are used throughout rather than stuffing logic into controllers. The seed data gives you a working admin login immediately, which is genuinely useful for getting oriented fast.
Abandoned since March 2020 — it's stuck on Laravel 6 (EOL), which means you're immediately on the hook for upgrading before you write a single line of business logic. Zero tests beyond the default Laravel stubs, which matters because permission logic is exactly the kind of thing that silently breaks. The 'combined' migrations folder sitting alongside the normal migrations folder is unexplained and confusing — a newcomer won't know which set to run. The README links to QuickAdminPanel as a commercial upsell, which is fine, but worth knowing the project exists partly as a marketing vehicle for that product.
