I just started to learn the laravel framework and have a strange situation here.
First of all in my web.php I have code like:
<?php
Route::get('/', function () {
return view('welcome');
});
Route::get('users', ['uses' => 'UsersController@index']);
In my UsersController.php file I have code like:
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
class UsersController extends Controller
{
public function index(){
return view('users.index');
}
}
I have a file named index.blade.php in directory views/users that has the same content as the default welcome.blade.php. But when I try to return view('users.index'); there is no result (no error, or text) but when I try to return view('welcome'); it works just fine.
The directory and the file truly exists. I'm using Macbook Pro.
welcome.blade.php and the /users/index.blade.php content (default welcome page):
<!doctype html>
<html lang="{{ config('app.locale') }}">
