**HotCoffee** is a free Laravel admin interface package. It provides an easy way to add/edit/delete data from a web app and includes a few "modules" for:

* Articles/Blog Posts
* Info Pages
* Admin Search
* XLS/CSV Export
* Menu Builder
* File Manager
* User Roles
* Users
* Global Website Settings
* Custom Search Engine Friendly URLs (SEF URLs) for models
* and more!

**HotCoffee** aims to help you with the generic tasks of creating an admin panel and lets you focus on building the app. The admin panel is easily extendable and you can edit most of it's appearance from a single config file.

This package is **not a CMS** (or blogging system), but it could be used in building one.
