Can’t access css files in my public folder &…

I know this question has been asked many times but unfortunately i can’t seem to get this working. I have my assets in public/vendor/ and public/css/ . When i upload files on my live server, it works perfectly. All assets in the public folders are accessed but not on localhost , i keep getting 404 errors (file not found)

Login.blade.php

  <link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php echo asset('public/vendor/bootstrap/css/bootstrap.min.css') ?>" type="text/css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php echo asset('public/vendor/bootstrap/css/bootstrap-datepicker.min.css') ?>" type="text/css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php echo asset('public/vendor/bootstrap/css/bootstrap-select.min.css') ?>" type="text/css">

I have my index.php in my public folder

index.php

require __DIR__.'/../vendor/autoload.php';

$app = require_once __DIR__.'/../bootstrap/app.php';

htaccess

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
    <IfModule mod_negotiation.c>
        Options -MultiViews
    </IfModule>

    RewriteEngine On

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -d [OR]
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
    RewriteRule ^ ^$1 [N]

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} (.w+$) [NC]
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ public/$1 

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
    RewriteRule ^ server.php

</IfModule>

Answer

remove public from here asset() function directly target public dir

<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php echo asset('vendor/bootstrap/css/bootstrap.min.css') ?>" type="text/css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php echo asset('vendor/bootstrap/css/bootstrap-datepicker.min.css') ?>" type="text/css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php echo asset('vendor/bootstrap/css/bootstrap-select.min.css') ?>" type="text/css">

and as your using laravel don’t use <?php echo ?> it is in {{ }} in laravel

<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ asset('vendor/bootstrap/css/bootstrap.min.css') }}" type="text/css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ asset('vendor/bootstrap/css/bootstrap-datepicker.min.css') }}" type="text/css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ asset('vendor/bootstrap/css/bootstrap-select.min.css') }}" type="text/css">
