backpack | Website Documentation Add-ons Pricing Services

Start with the "Getting Started" series in our docs. We try to nudge you towards creating a Backpack acccount, but you don't need one, if you're just trying it out. Alternatively, if you don't have 20 minutes right now, subscribe to our drip email tutorial. You'll receive one email per day, for 5 days, 5 minutes each. By the end, you'll be familiar with how Backpack works, and be able to create admin panels for your Laravel apps. Security updates and breaking changes If you're using Backpack in production, please subscribe to the Backpack Newsletter so you can find out about any security updates, breaking changes or major features. We never ever share your email with anyone & we try to send as few emails as possible (1-4 emails per year). We hate unsolicited email too. But... you know... you're building an admin panel, security should be something you're up-to-date with.
