# Installation
#### Step 1 :
```bash
composer require lakm/laravel-comments -W
```
#### Step 2 :
```bash
php artisan commenter:install
```
#### Step 3 :
Include styles in your layout.
```html
@commentsStyles
```
{% hint style="info" %}
To avoid CSS name conflicts, we recommend adding your styles to the end of the head tag.
{% endhint %}
Include scripts in your layout
```html
@commentsScripts
```
#### Manually including Livewire's frontend assets
If you manually include livewire frontend ([documentation](https://livewire.laravel.com/docs/installation#manually-bundling-livewire-and-alpine)) assets make sure `@commentsStyles` is included before `@livewireStyles` and`@commentsScripts` is included before the `@livewireScripts`
```html
@commentsStyles
@livewireStyles
@commentsScripts
@livewireScripts
```
#### Manually bundling Livewire and Alpine
If you manually bundle livewire frontend ([documentation](https://livewire.laravel.com/docs/installation#manually-bundling-livewire-and-alpine)) assets make sure `@commentsStyles` is included before `@livewireStyles` and`@commentsScripts` is included before the script that includes livewire bundle.
```
@commentsStyles
@livewireStyles
@commentsScripts
@vite(['resources/js/app.js'])
{{ $slot }}
@livewireScriptConfig
```
{% hint style="info" %}
To improve performance we recommend adding script at the end of the body tag.
{% endhint %}
Optionally you can publish the views using below command,
```bash
php artisan vendor:publish --tag=comments-views
```
