Answer 1

If your customer class is in App namespace, you need to use:

use App\customer;

instead of

use App\Http\Controllers\customer;

Answer 2

This is simple You need to understand. Make sure you have created a model Customer.php in app/Customer.php and another important thing you must create your table with customers that's all. After that you need to add this line before class like:-

use App\Customer;

Hope it helps :)
