I tried to extract a simple, reusable blog module to use on my projects. I used two external packages in total. For keeping the URL pretty on every possible page, I added Eloquent Sluggable and for displaying the content of a post I decided to use Laravel Markdown. This can of course be overwritten.
The module includes the following models and each model has a default observer:
PS: Observers are currently not customizable. :(

| posts() | Posts of the category. (hasMany) |
| postsCount() | Posts count of the category. (hasOne) |

| scopePopular($descending = true) | Order the categories accoring to their popularities. (scope) |
| Methods | Description |
|---|---|
| posts() | Posts of the tag. (belongsToMany) |
| postsCount() | Posts count of the tag. (hasOne) |
