Render view

package does not change the way you render view, you still use the View::make or view() as default of laravel, read more on views document. If the render view and the view does not exist in the resources/themes/theme-name, it will render view in resources/views.

Theme assets

Use themeAsset() instead of asset() when link to assets in theme, example:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="{!! themeAsset('css/bootstrap.css') !!}">
//render <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://domain/themes/theme-name/css/bootstrap.css">

Change current theme

You can change the theme in the following ways:

app('theme')->set($themeName)

Or use function helper

setTheme($themeName);//function helper

or use Facade

Theme::set($themeName);//use facade

Support methods

Theme::client();//return object of MobileDetect
Theme::pathTheme($name = null);//return path to current theme or name input
Theme::currentTheme();//return name of current theme
Theme::reset();//reset default theme
Theme::set();//set theme
Theme::allTheme($except = [], $config = true);//get list theme in folder themes
themeAsset($name = false);//link to asset current theme or by theme name
setTheme($name);// change theme by theme name

Support other config provider

By default package use provider config of laravel, you can change to provider you want by edit config 'config_provider' => 'provider_name'

P/s: excuse me my English.
