Alternatives using facade
Optionally you can use a facade to make new party or item
use Invoice;
$customer = Invoice::makeParty([
'name' => 'John Doe',
]);
$item = Invoice::makeItem('Your service or product title')->pricePerUnit(9.99);
return Invoice::make()->buyer($customer)->addItem($item)->stream();
Templates
After publishing assets you can modify or make your own template for invoices.
Templates are stored in the resources/views/vendor/invoices/templates directory. There you will find default.blade.php template which is used by default.
You can specify which template to use by calling template method on Invoice object.
For example if you have resources/views/vendor/invoices/templates/my_company.blade.php it should look like this:
Invoice::make('receipt')->template('my_company');
Too see how things work in a template you can view default.blade.php as an example.
