Coiwnink V2

In this repository, you will find the source code of the Coinwink app version 2, which is built using Laravel and Vue.js.

The previous V1 version of Coinwink was developed using WordPress and jQuery, and it was live from 2016 to 2022. You can find the first version archived under the Releases section. While the Coinwink V1 was optimized and fast, it was difficult to maintain and develop new features. As a result, the app was migrated to Laravel and Vue.js to improve maintainability and the speed of development.

The new Coinwink V2 includes some code from the V1 that was retained for its optimization and has been transferred unchanged from the previous framework to the new one. However, the overall architecture of the app is now based on Laravel for the backend and Vue.js for the frontend, which allows for easier maintenance and development of new features.

To migrate from WordPress users, the mikemclin/laravel-wp-password tool is being used. When an old WordPress user tries to log in, the user is automatically moved to Laravel's authentication system by adding the user to the database users table with the user's password rehashed for Laravel.

The database migrations were generated from the existing database with the help of the kitloong/laravel-migrations-generator tool.
