php artisan key:generate

Configure your database in the .env file

Run migrations

php artisan migrate

Run the server

php artisan serve

Development

# Run the development server with logs, queues and asset compilation
composer dev

# Or run each component separately
php artisan serve
php artisan queue:listen --tries=1
pnpm run dev

Customization

Panel Configuration

Panels can be customized through their respective providers:

• app/Providers/Filament/AdminPanelProvider.php

Alternatively, these settings are also consolidated in the config/filakit.php file for easier management.

Themes and Colors

Each panel can have its own color scheme, which can be easily modified in the corresponding Provider files or in the filakit.php configuration file.

Configuration File

The config/filakit.php file centralizes the configuration of the starter kit, including:

• Panel routes
• Middleware for each panel
• Branding options (logo, colors)
• Authentication guards

Resources

FilaKit includes support for:

• User management
• Tailwind CSS integration
• Database queue configuration
• Customizable panel routing and branding

Security headers

Every panel response carries baseline security headers from laravel-security-headers (the SecurityHeaders middleware is the first entry in each panel's ->middleware([...])):

• X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff, X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN, Referrer-Policy: strict-origin-when-cross-origin, Permissions-Policy, Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy
• Strict-Transport-Security over HTTPS outside the local environment (configure trustProxies behind a TLS-terminating proxy)
• a Content-Security-Policy that keeps scripts, styles, fonts, frames and form posts first-party. Filament needs 'unsafe-inline' and 'unsafe-eval' in script-src, so it is not an XSS defence — escape and sanitize anything user-supplied. The CSP is disabled in local so the Vite dev server works.

Defaults live in config/security-headers.php. Admins can change them at runtime in Settings → Security headers (filament-security-headers); saved values override the config, and Reset to config goes back. Allow any third-party origin you add (analytics, chat widgets, CDNs) in the matching directive, and try a stricter policy with report-only first.
