Create app.js file inside public/angular directory and paste the code given below

var angularApp = angular.module('angularApp', angularLibs, function($interpolateProvider) {
   $interpolateProvider.startSymbol('<%'); $interpolateProvider.endSymbol('%>');
});

angularApp.config(function($mdThemingProvider) {
$mdThemingProvider.theme('altTheme')
.primaryPalette('green')
.accentPalette('blue')
.warnPalette('pink')

$mdThemingProvider.setDefaultTheme('altTheme');

factory.showActionToast = function(msg, position) {
    var toast = $mdToast.simple()

    .highlightAction(true)
    .hideDelay(5000000)
    .highlightClass('md-accent')
    .position(position);
    $mdToast.show(toast).then(function(response) {
        if ( response == 'close' ) {

        }
    });
}

return factory;

});

Route::get('/', [UserController::class, 'welcome']);

Create UserController in app/Http/Controllers and create a function

//This function inside controller

public function welcome(Request $request){
$message = ['type' => 'success', 'content' => 'Task was successful!'];

    $request->session()->flash('message', $message);

    return view('welcome');
}

Add toast html inside body of your layout

<div ng-controller="toastCtrl" layout-fill layout="column" class="inset" ng-cloak>
