We are tired of those stringent options of voting systems today, so we decided to make our owns. Opinionate is a voting system site built on Laravel. It supports various option types, anonymity of users, time-sensitive or privacy-concerned topics.

First, use Laravel to create a new app.

laravel new opinionate

After it, remember to configure .env for database connection settings.

Then, set up the git repository to fetch.

git init
git remote add origin https://github.com/jaidTw/Opinionate.git
git fetch --all
git reset --hard origin/master

Or you can just download the archive and replace the original files.

Then do the database migration.

php artisan migrate
