Created at 05-Jan-2023 , By samar

You can use composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel example-app command in the window terminal to create a laravel app. Before creating your first Laravel project, you should ensure that you have PHP and Composer installed on your system.

After you have installed PHP and Composer, you may create a new Laravel project via the Composer create-project command:

composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel example-app

This will create a new Laravel project with the latest stable version in a directory called "example-app". If you want to specify a specific version of Laravel to use, you can add the version number after the laravel/laravel portion of the command.
