Create a new SSH User
Laravel doesn't like it when you run it in root, this is for security purposes. We agree with them it's safer, however you can use root.
sudo useradd -m -d /home/ticaga demo
This creates a user called "demo".
sudo passwd demo
This allows you to create a password for the username "demo".
sudo usermod -aG wheel demo
This allows you to add the user "demo" to the sudo group, this allows you to use sudo.
