Can you help me more clearly about the Bookstack project architecture !!
I am trying to fix the css and add some options to the homepage but I can't find the file that contains it, maybe I don't understand the workflow of the project!!
thank u!!

Hi @demoqb1,
It's quite a large subject to be honest and it will take a long time to document each part of the architecture.

Most things follow Laravel convention.
CSS is done via SCSS, and the root file for the styles is this one:
https://github.com/BookStackApp/BookStack/blob/master/resources/sass/styles.scss

More details, and instructions for building css/js, can be found in the readme here:
https://github.com/BookStackApp/BookStack#%EF%B8%8F-development--testing

The homepage is served through this method here:
https://github.com/BookStackApp/BookStack/blob/master/app/Http/Controllers/HomeController.php#L19
It's one of the messiest controller routes, due to the different homepage options available.

By default, this is the view that would be served:
https://github.com/BookStackApp/BookStack/blob/master/resources/views/common/home.blade.php

Knowing the Laravel basics will really help understand how a request goes through an application until the point of response.

Laracasts has a great free video guide on the basics: https://laracasts.com/series/laravel-6-from-scratch
