Using the `ember-starter-kit` all I had to do was throw the contents of it in the `/my_laravel_app/public` folder and everything was fine.

Now I am trying to create a project with `laravel` and `ember-cli`

I’m a little confused as to how I need to structure my application? In which laravel folder should I be running the `ember new my-app` command? Furthermore, how can I use `apache` for testing my `ember-cli` application instead of using `ember server` command since I need to test it with my laravel generated apis.

Any help is much appreciated!

ember-cli is setup to proxy to your API server, which makes it possible to install your client-side app anywhere, just make sure to configure the proxy to point to your API.
