How to install Laravel's Artisan?

To install Laravel's Artisan, you will need to install the Laravel framework on your machine first.

Artisan is bundled with the Laravel framework, so you don't need to install it separately. You just need to install Laravel itself. Here's how:

  1. First, make sure that you have PHP and Composer installed on your machine. Laravel 11 requires PHP 8.2 or higher and Composer to be installed.
  2. Next, open a terminal window and navigate to the directory where you want to install Laravel.
  3. Run the following command to install Laravel:
composer create-project laravel/laravel myproject

This will create a new Laravel project in a directory called "myproject". Replace "myproject" with the name of your project.

  1. After the installation is complete, navigate to the project directory:
cd myproject
  1. You can now use Artisan by running the php artisan command in your terminal window.

For example, you can use the following command to view a list of available Artisan commands:

php artisan list

To start the local development server, run:

php artisan serve
