Blade's @inject

It doesn't work because the global function app() doesn't exist, put this somewhere before the Blade class is instantiated to make it work.

use Illuminate\Container\Container;

$container = new Container();
Container::setInstance($container);
$container = Container::getInstance();

if (! function_exists('app')) {
    /**
     * Get the available container instance.
     *
     * @param  string  $make
     * @param  array   $parameters
     * @return mixed|\Illuminate\Foundation\Application
     */
    function app($make = null, $parameters = [])
    {
        if (is_null($make)) {
            return Container::getInstance();
        }

        return Container::getInstance()->make($make, $parameters);
    }
}

Now injecting into the views works (it's basically instantiating a class of your choice using the Container) and you can also use this DI container for your app.
