Laravel 9 Crash Course Part 0: Setting up Laravel Sail

Step 0: Docker Desktop

If you don't have Docker desktop installed, go ahead and download & install from docker.com/products/docker-desktop

Step 1: Install Laravel

Docker installed? Awesome, we're ready to go.

If you're on a mac, you can use this command to start a fresh project.

curl -s "https://laravel.build/crash-course" | bash

There's quite a few ways to install Laravel based on your preferred approach and OS. To install on Windows, check the Windows installation docs.

Step 2: Start Sail

Next we'll run cd crash-course && ./vendor/bin/sail up

That's it, we're ready to start!
