How to set up the Permission on Laravel file structure.

Permissions are usually denoted with three digits, each representing a different set of permissions:

The first digit represents permissions for the user who owns the file (user permissions).
The second digit represents permissions for the group that owns the file (group permissions).
The third digit represents permissions for all other users (world permissions).

Each digit can be a number from 0 to 7, which corresponds to a combination of read (4), write (2), and execute (1) permissions. For example, a permission of 755 means that the user can read, write, and execute (4+2+1=7), while the group and others can read and execute but not write (4+1=5).
