return datatables()->query(DB::table('users'))->toJson();
return datatables()->collection(User::all())->toJson();

return datatables(User::all())->toJson();
```

## Debugging Mode
To enable debugging mode, just set `APP_DEBUG=true` and the package will include the queries and inputs used when processing the table.

**IMPORTANT:** Please make sure that APP_DEBUG is set to false when your app is on production.

## PHP ARTISAN SERVE BUG
Please avoid using `php artisan serve` when developing with the package. 
There are known bugs when using this where Laravel randomly returns a redirect and 401 (Unauthorized) if the route requires authentication and a 404 NotFoundHttpException on valid routes.

It is advised to use [Homestead](https://laravel.com/docs/5.4/homestead) or [Valet](https://laravel.com/docs/5.4/valet) when working with the package.
