How to host a Laravel project on Hostinger shared hosting

Introduction

When I was looking to deploy a Laravel project on Hostinger shared hosting, I found that there was no proper guide available on the internet. So I decided to write a step-by-step guide on how to host a Laravel project on Hostinger shared hosting. I hope this will help someone who is looking to host a Laravel project on Hostinger shared hosting.

As Hostinger's shared hosting does not provide the same functionalities as a VPS or Dedicated Server, so there are some limitations. However, I have tried to overcome those limitations and make the Laravel project work on Hostinger shared hosting.

Fun Stuff

I recently figured out how to launch applications in sway on login (or config reload) in specific workspaces. I tried doing this a year or so ago using procedural calls to swaymsg with manual changes to workspaces but it failed due to the delay in launching apps (the workspace would change too quickly). However, I recently figured out how to actually do it by combining swaymsg with assign.

First, you'll want to get the app_id, class or title of window you want to launch. Then you'll want to add it to the your sway config file.

The syntax looks like:

Here is the best setup (I think so :D) for K-series Keychron keyboards on Linux.

Note: many newer Keychron keyboards use QMK as firmware and most tips here do not apply to them. Maybe the ones related to Bluetooth can be useful, but everything related to Apple's keyboard module (hid_apple) on Linux, won't work. As far as I know, all QMK-based boards use the hid_generic module instead. Examples of QMK-based boards are: Q, Q-Pro, V, K-Pro, etc.

Most of these commands have been tested on Ubuntu 20.04 and should also work on most Debian-based distributions. If a command happens not to work for you, take a look in the comment section.

Make Fn + F-keys work (NOT FOR QMK-BASED BOARDS)

Older Keychron keyboards (those not based on QMK) use the hid_apple driver on Linux, even in the Windows/Android mode, both in Bluetooth and Wired modes.

I use a great widget focus-plasmoid (KDE store) for Pomodoro-driven work on KDE. There are no prominent alternatives so far.

The work happens on a different virtual desktop (or activity).

When focus starts, the virtual desktop with working applications gets switched on.
When focus ends, a message box asks for a short description of what is done in the past period (when it is still in the context), then a daily report is shown as a popup and the virtual desktop gets changed.
A few seconds of the sleep time is to avoid confusion and prepare to get switched after a dong sound.
The report gets also saved in a folder along the script for every day and can be reviewed later.
