You can set up a subdomain route like this:

Route::group(['domain' => '{parameter}.example.com'], function () {
    Route::get('/', 'UserController@showByParameter');
});

then in your controller you can do

public function showByParameter($parameter)
{
    $user = \App\User::whereParameter($parameter)->firstOrFail();

    return view('users.show', compact('user'));

}
