Make new laravel project
Here are the steps to create 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/
Step 2: Create a new project
Open your terminal 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 project is created, 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
Laravel comes with a default .env
file that you can use to configure your environment. You can edit this file to set up your database, email, and other settings.
Step 6: Run the migrations
Run the following command to create the database tables:
php artisan migrate
Step 7: 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 project at http://localhost:8000
That's it! You now have a brand new Laravel project up and running.
