Laravel 5: How to avoid public folder, trying to open from root in localhost

I'm following the following Structure as I don't want to expose my code to the public.

The folder structure in my localhost is

tbt
    tbt/user/
    tbt/public_html/

where user contains all the folder of root without the public folder and public_html contains the public files.

And I have changed in below lines in public_html/index.php:

require __DIR__.'/../user/bootstrap/autoload.php';
$app = require_once __DIR__.'/../user/bootstrap/app.php';

But when i run the application,

I'm getting Url like localhost/tbt/user/xxxx But it should be localhost/tbt/xxx

I have followed this solution for solving the problem but couldn't solve it as My application is on Laravel 5. Anyone who can help me to find the solution please?

In the root directory of your Laravel project create a file with name .htacess and paste this code in it

<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

You can setup a alias in your web server, pointing to your public folder. It's simple but works for me

Process 1

  1. Rename the server.php in the your Laravel root folder to index.php
  2. copy the .htaccess file from /public directory to your Laravel root folder.

Process 2

  1. Follow process 1
