We need to add fake records in our database. use the below command and add 100 fake records in database :
php artisan tinker
factory(App\User::class, 100)->create();
Make Routes

Route::get('search', '[email protected]');
Route::get('autocomplete', '[email protected]');
Create Controller

After successfully create controller go to app/controllers/AutoCompleteController.php and put the below code :
<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use App\User;
class AutoCompleteController extends Controller
{
public function index()
{
return view('search');
}
public function search(Request $request)
{
$search = $request->get('term');
$result = User::where('name', 'LIKE', '%'. $search. '%')->get();
return response()->json($result);
}
}
