Once you have Composer installed, you can create a new Laravel project by running the following command:

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

This command will create a new directory called `my-app` and install all of the necessary Laravel files.

Step 2: Create a New Laravel Project

Once you have Laravel installed, you can create a new Laravel project by running the following command:

cd my-app php artisan new app

This command will create a new directory called `app` and all of the necessary files for your new Laravel application.

Step 3: Create Models, Views, and Controllers

The next step is to create the models, views, and controllers for your application. Models represent the data in your application, views are the HTML templates that are used to display data, and controllers are the PHP classes that handle user input and interact with models and views.

To create a new model, run the following command:

php artisan make:model User

This command will create a new file called `User.php` in the `app/Models` directory. This file will contain the code for your new User model.

To create a new view, run the following command:

php artisan make:view welcome

This command will create a new file called `welcome.blade.php` in the `resources/views` directory. This file will contain the HTML template for your new welcome page.

To create a new controller, run the following command:

php artisan make:controller WelcomeController

This command will create a new file called `WelcomeController.php` in the `app/Http/Controllers` directory. This file will contain the code for your new WelcomeController.

Step 4: Handle User Input

The next step is to handle user input. Laravel provides a number of ways to do this, including request objects, form requests, and middleware.

Request objects are used to access user input from HTTP requests. You can access the request object in your controllers using the `$request` variable.

Form requests are used to validate user input. You can create a new form request by running the following command:

php artisan make:request StoreUserRequest

This command will create a new file called `StoreUserRequest.php` in the `app/Http/Requests` directory. This file will contain the code for your new form request.

Middleware are used to intercept HTTP requests and perform actions before they reach your controllers. You can create a new middleware by running the following command:

php artisan make:middleware Auth

This command will create a new file called `Auth.php` in the `app/Http/Middleware` directory. This file will contain the code for your new middleware.

Step 5: Deploy Your Application

The final step is to deploy your application. Laravel provides a number of ways to do this, including using a web hosting provider, using a cloud platform, or deploying your application manually.

To deploy your application using a web hosting provider, you will need to create an account with a web hosting provider and upload your application files to their servers.

To deploy your application using a cloud platform, you will need to create an account with a cloud platform and follow their instructions for deploying your application.

To deploy your application manually, you will need to upload your application files to your server and configure your server to run your application.

Laravel is a powerful and easy-to-use PHP framework that can help you build web applications quickly and easily. In this tutorial, we have shown you how to install Laravel, create a new Laravel project, create models, views, and controllers, handle user input, and deploy your application.

If you're interested in learning more about Laravel, there are a number of resources available online. The Laravel documentation is a great place to start, and there are also a number of Laravel tutorials and courses available.
