In order to use this Like button component, you need to install a laravel-love composer package in your laravel project.

Adding default reactions

Run the following command, to add default reactions i.e. Like and Dislike into the database.

php artisan love:reaction-type-add --default

Setting up Reacterable (User Model)

Further, we need to modify the User model to extend an interface and add a trait to it, as shown above in the User Model Tab.

Run artisan command

php artisan love:setup-reacterable --model="App\User" --nullable

You can look more into the Official Documentation on setting up Reactable.
