How to integrate a vanilla Laravel view into Backpack?

I´m using Backpack 4.0 for Laravel to create an admin panel.

Let´s say I create vanilla Laravel view (like "foo.blade.php"). I integrate it into the menu creating a link on sidebar_content.blade.php. When I open the web page I want it to have the sidebar, header and styles from Backpack so it`s fully integrated.

What do I have to include in the view to do it?

Shortly, your view must extend @extends(backpack_view('blank')).
I'll give a step by step of the complete operation to add a custom page to backpack so it may help others.

First you need to create a Controller, you can create one with php artisan make:controller

CustomController.php

use Illuminate\Routing\Controller;

class CustomController extends Controller {

    public function custom()
    {
        return view('custom');
    }
}

Your view must extend @extends(backpack_view('blank')) and include a content section:

custom.blade.php

@extends(backpack_view('blank'))

@section('content')
    <div class="jumbotron mb-2 mt-4">
        <h1>Custom</h1>
    </div>
@endsection

sidebar_content.blade.php

...
<li class="nav-item"><a class="nav-link" href='{{ backpack_url('custom') }}'><i class="nav-icon fa fa-archive"></i> Custom</a></li>

custom.php (routes)

Route::get('custom', 'CustomController@custom')->name('custom');
