Downloading And Installing Laravel

We need 4 things in this laravel installation.

1. Wamp Server / Xamp Server / Mamp Server
2. Composer (Dependency Manager For PHP)
3. Text Editor: Visual Studio Code, Brackets, Sublime Text etc.
4. Git Bash: It also provides command line interface to include third party packages.

Composer (Dependency Manager For PHP)

• Composer is a tool for dependency management in PHP.
• Composer provides you CLI to run commands.
• It allows you to declare the libraries your project depends on and it will manage (install/update) them for you.
• It helps us installing/updating various requirements/components for our app such as Laravel framework.
