Deploying Laravel on a shared hosting using only .htaccess

Making Laravel work on a shared hosting can be troublesome, because Laravel needs to have its document root set to the public directory. This may not be configurable by a user or even desirable, when the server is hosting multiple websites.

Here's a simple method using only a .htaccess file placed in Laravel's root directory - e.g. alongside app, bootstrap, config, ... No changes whatsoever are necessary to your code.

The file rewrites all the requests so that requesting /file.png would in fact return /public/file.png and anything else is routed to /public/index.php. This also ensures that nothing outside the public folder can be accessed, thereby protecting any sensitive files like .env or database/*.
