    Move your index.php and .htaccess files under the public folder to parent folder.

    Don’t forget to fix the paths in your index.php file. Like this:

    // require __DIR__ . '/../vendor/autoload.php'; to...
require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

    Your project will be triggered in public_html.

    The best practice for this case is by creating htaccess like this : How do you redirect all request to public/ folder in laravel 5

    But we still have a "not too recommended" trick to handle limited functionality of hosting provider :

    1. Move all files in your project file (except "public" directory), and create new "private" folder. In this step, the "private" and "public" folder are in same level like this :
    - private
   - app
   - bootstrap 
   - config
   - database
   - ...
- public
   - index.php
   - your_assets_or_anything
   - ...
    1. Move all "public" directory content to root project. In this step, the directory structure will be like this :
    - private
   - app
   - bootstrap 
   - config
   - database
   - ...
- index.php
- your_assets_or_anything
- ...
    1. Last open the "index.php" file that currently in root directory, replace all /../ with /private/ . Example :
    <?php

use IlluminateContractsHttpKernel;
use IlluminateHttpRequest;

define('LARAVEL_START', microtime(true));
// ...
if (file_exists($maintenance = __DIR__.'/private/storage/framework/maintenance.php')) {
    require $maintenance;
}
// ...
require __DIR__.'/private/vendor/autoload.php';
// ...
$app = require_once __DIR__.'/private/bootstrap/app.php';

$kernel = $app->make(Kernel::class);

$response = $kernel->handle(
    $request = Request::capture()
)->send();

$kernel->terminate($request, $response);

    Keep in mind that this trick have a security issue. You need to protect all private files from public access.
