Using Statamic Alongside Laravel Nova

We've heard users saying they'd like to manage the front-end with Statamic and the back-end with Laravel Nova. That's fine! It's possible to run both Statamic and Nova together.

1. Install Nova as per their documentation
2. Disable Statamic's front-end routing. It conflicts with Nova.

   // config/statamic/routes.php
   'enabled' => false,

3. Add Statamic's routes that you just disabled, to your own routes file.

   // routes/web.php
   Statamic::additionalWebRoutes();
   Route::any('/{segments?}', '\Statamic\Http\Controllers\FrontendController@index')
      ->where('segments', '(?!nova|cp).*')
      ->name('statamic.site');

4. Create a dedicated auth guard and provider for Statamic.

   // config/auth.php
   'guards' => [
        'web' => [
            'driver' => 'session',
            'provider' => 'users',
        ],
        'statamic' => [
            'driver' => 'session',
            'provider' => 'statamic',
        ],
   ],
    
   'providers' => [
        'users' => [
            'driver' => 'eloquent',
            'model' => \App\User::class,
        ],
        'statamic' => [
            'driver' => 'statamic',
        ],
   ],

5. Configure Statamic to use that guard.

   // config/statamic/users.php
   'guards' => [
        'cp' => 'statamic',
        'web' => 'statamic',
   ],
