I would suggest not following a guide for Laravel version 5. We are now on version 11 and php minimum requirements have long since changed

Basic Task List tutorial
I'm trying to follow along the Basic Task List tutorial on laravel.com. I have homestead and the virtual machine set up and ready to go. I followed another tutorial and created a blank laravel project.
Now I am trying to create a Basic Task List following, https://laravel.com/docs/5.1/homestead
I followed these steps: git clone https://github.com/laravel/quickstart-basic quickstart I updated the yaml file to point at the right folders. I turned on the virtual machine (vagrant reload --provision) and connected to it (ssh)
cd quickstart composer install - this is where I get an error:
vagrant@homestead:~/code/quickstart$ composer install Installing dependencies from lock file (including require-dev) Verifying lock file contents can be installed on current platform. Your lock file does not contain a compatible set of packages. Please run composer update.
Problem 1 - doctrine/instantiator is locked to version 1.0.5 and an update of this package was not requested. - doctrine/instantiator 1.0.5 requires php >=5.3,<8.0-DEV -> your php version (8.1.8) does not satisfy that requirement. Problem 2 - phpspec/prophecy is locked to version v1.6.0 and an update of this package was not requested. - phpspec/prophecy v1.6.0 requires php ^5.3|^7.0 -> your php version (8.1.8) does not satisfy that requirement.

I tried to run composer update and I got another error: vagrant@homestead:~/code/quickstart$ composer update

"Don't look at old information" is the most important in Laravel.
The current tutorial is Bootcamp. https://bootcamp.laravel.com/

I installed laravel herd, following along the laravel 11 tutorial. I created a new project and can see the files were created. But when I go to check it on my browser, instead of getting the laravel page, I get IIS Windows instead. Where did I go wrong? I'm on a Windows 10.

@EllenK You installed IIS, that is where you went wrong.
You need to stop IIS, and then you can run Herd properly.

Well that got rid of the IIS page. I turned off the IIS, deleted the old project, created a brand new one. But now the the test page is saying: This site can’t be reached.

Nevermind! Test page came up. Nothing like a good old start and stop of the services.
