Add hostname to bootstrap/start.php:

'local' => array('homestead', 'Bens-MacBook-Pro.local'),

Install Dotenv:

"require": {
	"vlucas/phpdotenv": "dev-master"
}

Create an .env-sample and .env file:

# Database settings
DB_CATALOG=
DB_USER=
DB_PASSWORD=
DB_HOST=

Edit bootstrap/start.php:

Dotenv::load(dirname(__DIR__));
Dotenv::required([
  'DB_HOST',
  'DB_CATALOG',
  'DB_USER',
  'DB_PASSWORD',
]);

Edit app/config/database.php:

'mysql' => array(
	'driver'    => 'mysql',
	'host'      => $_ENV['DB_HOST'],
	'database'  => $_ENV['DB_CATALOG'],
	'username'  => $_ENV['DB_USER'],
	'password'  => $_ENV['DB_PASSWORD'],
	'charset'   => 'utf8',
	'collation' => 'utf8_unicode_ci',
	'prefix'    => '',
),

Edit bottom of public/index.php:

if (App::environment('local'))
{
  SassCompiler::run("scss/", "css/");
}
$app->run();

Create public/scss/style.scss:

/* Space out content a bit */
body {
  padding-top: 20px;
  padding-bottom: 20px;
}

/* Everything but the jumbotron gets side spacing for mobile first views */
.header,
.marketing,
.footer {
  padding-right: 15px;
  padding-left: 15px;
}

/* Custom page header */
.header {
  border-bottom: 1px solid #e5e5e5;

.header h3 {
  padding-bottom: 19px;
  margin-top: 0;
  margin-bottom: 0;
  line-height: 40px;
}

/* Custom page footer */
.footer {
  padding-top: 19px;
  color: #777;
  border-top: 1px solid #e5e5e5;
}

@media (min-width: 768px) {
  .container {
    max-width: 730px;
  }
}
.container-narrow > hr {
  margin: 30px 0;
}

/* Main marketing message and sign up button */

  border-bottom: 1px solid #e5e5e5;
}
.jumbotron .btn {
  padding: 14px 24px;
  font-size: 21px;
}

/* Supporting marketing content */
.marketing {
  margin: 40px 0;
}
.marketing p + h4 {
  margin-top: 28px;
}

/* Responsive: Portrait tablets and up */
@media screen and (min-width: 768px) {
  /* Remove the padding we set earlier */
  .header,
  .marketing,
  .footer {
    padding-right: 0;
    padding-left: 0;
  }
  /* Space out the masthead */
  .header {
    margin-bottom: 30px;
  }
  /* Remove the bottom border on the jumbotron for visual effect */
  .jumbotron {
