I've been working on a new package for a few weeks, this goes hand in hand with Laravel Modules, to generate modules based on a template module.
https://github.com/dcblogdev/laravel-module-generator/
The idea is you create a module containing everything you want for a starter module. Typically your index, add, edit and delete pages along with migrations, factories and tests.
Once you've for a module you like then replace every reference to the name of the module with placeholders such as {Module} and {Model} these placeholders get replaced when a new module is generated. Once you have a base module building new modules is really fast!
Placeholders:
These placeholders are replaced with the name provided when running php artisan module:build
Used in filenames:
Module
= Module name ie Contacts
module
= Module name in lowercase ie contacts
Model
= Model name ie Contact
model
= Model name in lowercase ie contact
For a folder called Models rename it to Entities it will be renamed when back to Models when generating a new module.
Only used inside files:
{Module}
= Module name ie PurchaseOrders
{module}
= Module name in lowercase ie purchaseOrder
{Model}
= Model name ie PurchaseOrder
{model}
= Model name in lowercase ie purchaseOrder
{module_}
= module name in lowercase ie purchase_orders
{module-}
= module name in lowercase ie purchase-orders
