Laravel Forge
What is Laravel Forge? Forge is an incredible tool in the family of Laravel products that helps developers focus on developing, not deploying and hosting. I personally use it when deploying Laravel applications and it does make life much easier. Many of the pain points of hosting are taken care of for you so you can get right back to developing. Forge takes care of things like: Creating and provisioning a new server Setting up SSH keys Creating domains and subdomains Deploying from GitHub Save common bash scripts and re-run them on many servers Configure scheduled cron jobs Firewall and security pre-configured Configure New Relic and other services Install SSL Certs Forge can do much more, but those are the main things that it will take care of for you.
