Answer 1

I believe this will work:
My Controller Function
public function ReadFromPublic(){
$path = Storage::get('widget.json');
return view('read', compact('path'));
}
My Route
Route::get('/read','ReadJsonController#ReadFromPublic');
And if your'e using the public disk(used by default), don't forget to run php artisan storage:link

Answer 2

// controller
public function ReadFromPublic(){
$path = public_path('clients.json');
$data = json_decode(file_get_contents($path));
$clients = $data->clients;
return view('read', compact('clients'));
}
// view file
#foreach($clients as $client)
<div>
{{$client->name}}
</div>
#endforeach
// sample json file
