super-admin is an administrative interface builder for Laravel which can help you build CRUD backends with just a few lines of code.

Homepage | Documentation | GitHub | Extensions

Forked from Laravel-admin & Open-admin. Much thanks to Z-song and the open-admin team for their effort and great setup!

Both upstream projects are no longer maintained and remain incompatible with Laravel 11+. This repository continues the work to support Laravel 10, 11, 12, and 13.

composer require super-admin-org/super-admin

Publish assets and config:

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="SuperAdmin\Admin\AdminServiceProvider"

After running the command you can find the config file in config/admin.php, where you can change the install directory, database connection, or table names.

Run the installer:

php artisan admin:install

Open http://localhost/admin/ in your browser. Login with username admin and password admin.

Updating

composer update super-admin-org/super-admin
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=super-admin-assets --force

Quick Start

# 1. Create a model
php artisan make:model Post -m
# 2. Generate an admin controller
php artisan admin:controller \\App\\Models\\Post
# 3. Add route in app/Admin/routes.php# $router->resource('posts', PostController::class);# 4. Add menu item at /admin/auth/menu with URI "posts"

That's it! Full CRUD interface with grid, form, filters, and detail page.
