Attendize is an open-source event management and ticketing platform. It is easy to use and customizable. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to install Attendize on Windows 10.
This tutorial assumes that you have the following tools installed on your machine:
Open your terminal or command prompt and navigate to the directory where you want to install Attendize. Then, run the following command:
git clone https://github.com/Attendize/Attendize.git
This will clone the repository into your current directory.
Navigate to the cloned Attendize directory using the following command:
cd Attendize
Once inside the directory, run the following command to install the required dependencies:
composer install --no-dev --optimize-autoloader
This command will download and install all the required dependencies for Attendize.
Create a new database in your MySQL server and remember the database name, username, and password. You will need it in the next step.
In the Attendize directory, copy and rename the .env.example file to .env by running the following command:
cp .env.example .env
Open the .env file in any text editor of your choice and modify the following lines to match your MySQL configuration:

Save the changes and close the file.
Run the following command to generate a new application key:
