How to install LARAVEL5 with Xampp (Windows)

Image
By
Hi, 

 Today I am with the installation guide of LARAVEL5 in windows.

 Step 1)  Requirements

 a) PHP >= 5.5.9
b) OpenSSL PHP Extension
c) PDO PHP Extension
d) Mbstring PHP Extension
e) Tokenizer PHP Extension

Step 2)  Install Xampp
First of all, we need Xampp, so we can download it from the official page: Download Xampp

Step 3)  INSTALL Composer
If you've downloaded and installed Xampp, you need to install Composer.

                 "Composer is a PHP package manager that is integrated with Laravel Framework.
                 In Windows, we can install it easy going to the official page and download the installer."
Composer Download page

 After installing it, open a Windows terminal and write composer.
Step 4) Xampp Virtual Host
   We will configure a Virtual Host in Xampp for a Laravel project, and in this example, we want            to configure the domain laravel.dev for our project.

    We need to edit httpd-vhosts.conf that is located in 
           C:\xampp\apache\conf\extra\httpd-vhosts.conf and add following lines at the end of the file:

           #VirtualHost for LARAVEL.DEV

          <VirtualHost laravel.dev:80>
               DocumentRoot "C:\xampp\htdocs\laravel\public"
               ServerAdmin laravel.dev
               <Directory "C:\xampp\htdocs\laravel">
                   Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
                   AllowOverride All
                   Require all granted
               </Directory>
         </VirtualHost>

 After this, our apache is listening to laravel.dev connections, but we have to configure our hosts file that allows to redirect laravel.dev to the localhost that is located in C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc

# localhost name resolution is handled within DNS itself.
# 127.0.0.1 localhost
# ::1 localhost 127.0.0.1 laravel.dev

Step 5) Installing LARAVEL
Run this command: composer create-project laravel/laravel laravel "5.1.*"

After  Completing  open browser and put laravel.dev what you see is-
