Upload Product Data to Database Table in Laravel | Laravel E-Commerce Project Tutorial for Beginners

[@backshift-q2m]

Great tutorial, but I want to point out a few important aspects. The example did not sufficiently handle input validation from the user. I know this is an admin dashboard, but it's good practice to validate inputs everywhere in your application. I recommend using Form Request classes or the validate() method to ensure that all inputs meet the expected rules (e.g., required, string, image, etc.). This helps prevent security issues like SQL injection and XSS (cross-site scripting). Additionally, I would suggest uploading files to storage/app/public/products instead of directly to /public. This way, you can better manage access permissions and file organization. By using the command php artisan storage:link, you can create a symlink that allows secure access to files via URL without exposing them directly in the public directory. This approach is much more efficient in Laravel 11 and helps adhere to best security practices. Thanks for the video!
