PHP Apps with a Live Preview — Yes, Really
VULK generates PHP web apps — including Laravel-structured projects — from a prompt, and runs them in a live microVM preview (PHP 8.3 + nginx) so you see the real app serving before you export it to your own hosting.
PHP is a top-6 requested platform in prompts on VULK (174 all-time demand mentions across 11,355 generated apps), and since July 2026 generated PHP projects run in live microVM previews — php-fpm 8.3 behind nginx, auto-detected from composer.json (VULK platform data, July 2026).

The complete prompt
Adapt this brief to your business, then build and refine it in VULK.
Build a Laravel app for service-job scheduling. Store clients, technicians, jobs and assignments; provide authenticated staff views, validation, migrations and a documented local setup. Include these capabilities: - PHP 8.3 project generation — plain PHP or Laravel-style structure - Live preview on real microVMs: php-fpm + nginx, serving your actual code - Database-backed CRUD, forms and sessions - Deploy path: export + setup instructions for any PHP host - Full source export — cPanel, VPS or your own infrastructure Build the complete working project with its routes, data model and interactions. For saved or private data, implement persistence, authentication and server-side permissions. Keep API credentials on the server. For external services, document the required setup and use test mode until real accounts are connected. Do not present a simulated integration as a completed live connection. Make the interface responsive, with accessible labels, keyboard navigation and visible focus. Include loading, empty, validation and error states. Use clearly labelled sample data, never invented customer testimonials or results. Choose a visual direction suited to this project and keep typography, spacing and controls consistent. Explain how to run, test, export and deploy the source. Verify this end-to-end flow: Run migrations in a fresh environment, create and assign a job, and verify server-side validation and authorization with separate staff roles.

FAQ
Does the preview really run PHP?
Yes. Generated PHP projects are served by real php-fpm 8.3 + nginx microVMs — the preview is your actual code executing, not a static render. This shipped in July 2026.
How do I deploy a PHP project?
PHP projects export with setup instructions — they run on any standard PHP host, which is one of PHP’s strengths.
Can it generate a full Laravel project?
VULK generates PHP apps including Laravel-structured code — routes, controllers, views, migrations. Review composer dependencies and environment config in your normal workflow before production.
