LARAVEL

Installation (windows)    

Step 1

• Install composer from link on laravel official website

           Laravel utilizes composer to manage its dependencies. First download a copy of the compose.phar once you have PHAR archive, you can either keep it in your local project directory or move to user/local/bin to use it globally on your system. On Windows, you can use the composer windows installer

Step 2

• Through command prompt

                   -via Laravel Installer

                            First, download the Laravel installer using Composer.

                          Command: “composer global require "laravel/installer=~1.1"

Make sure to place the ~/.composer/vendor/bin directory in your PATH so the laravel executable is found when you run the laravel command in your terminal.

Once installed, the simple laravel new command will create a fresh Laravel installation in the directory you specify. For instance, laravel new blog would create a directory named blog containing a fresh Laravel installation with all dependencies installed. This method of installation is much faster than installing via Composer.

Step 3

• Via Composer Create-Project

            You may also install Laravel by issuing the Composer create-project command in your terminal:

Command=”composer create-project laravel/laravel --prefer-dist”
