Install laravel new project
Here are the steps to install a new Laravel project:
Step 1: Install Composer
If you haven't already, install Composer, the PHP package manager, on your system. You can download it from the official Composer website: https://getcomposer.org/download/
Step 2: Create a new project
Open a terminal or command prompt and run the following command to create a new Laravel project:
composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel project-name
Replace project-name
with the name you want to give your project.
Step 3: Change into the project directory
Once the installation is complete, change into the project directory:
cd project-name
Step 4: Install dependencies
Run the following command to install the dependencies required by Laravel:
composer install
Step 5: Configure the environment
Create a new file called .env
in the root of your project and configure the environment variables as needed. You can use the .env.example
file as a reference.
Step 6: Generate the application key
Run the following command to generate a new application key:
php artisan key:generate
Step 7: Run the migrations
Run the following command to run the database migrations and create the necessary tables:
php artisan migrate
Step 8: Start the development server
Run the following command to start the development server:
php artisan serve
This will start the server and you can access your Laravel project at http://localhost:8000 in your web browser.
That's it! You now have a brand new Laravel project up and running.
Note: Make sure you have PHP and Composer installed on your system before attempting to install a Laravel project.
