Simple Search in laravel

Simple search with Build a simple form using GET as well. Simple Example 

Step  1 - in view/index.blade.php blade file 

 <form action="" method="GET">
    <input type="text" name="category" required/>
    <button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>

@foreach($users as $index => $user)

@endforeach

Step  2 - In your controller you do

 public function index(Request $request){
    $category = $request->input('category');


 $users = User::where('category', 'LIKE', '%' . $category . '%')->get();
   

    return view('index', compact('users'));
}

Eager loading will work only if you have your relationships setup properly.

Keep your route unchanged the way it is now.
