Deadbolt is a simple permissions package for Laravel.

It's better than simple boolean flags on your users, but not so complex that it requires anything more than an extra permissions column in the users database table.

Deadbolt was designed to be as simple as possible without being intrusive. It fits well with the features already provided by Laravel and doesn't have a crazy steep learning curve. It's easy to install, easy to configure and easy to use.

Getting started is easy. Follow the steps in the README.md file and you'll be up and running in minutes.

Deadbolt doesn't provide roles or anything as complex as that. It's just about permissions. If you're looking for something more sophisticated, then Deadbolt is not for you. But if you just need to be able to assign some permissions to your users, and check if they have those permissions at some point in your app, the Deadbolt is a really easy solution.
