Core Setup

Now that LaravelUi5 Core is installed, I’ll show you how to wire it into your Laravel project. We’ll register the Ui5CoreServiceProvider, adjust the middleware stack, publish the config file, and set up your .env for development. This gives you a fully UI5-ready Laravel app — explicit, modular, and under your control.
