Jeffrey's test setup

I am watching the what's new in Laravel 8, and I'm curious how Jeffrey can just create a new project and it instantly works, is he using Homestead with some special config or something else, the Laravel built in server?

Hi @justageek

If I’m not wrong, Jeffry uses Valet (only available for Mac users) which allows to create new virtual hosts easily for each new project.

If you are a Windows user, you can use Homestead, or Laragon, similar to Valet.

I'd recommend Laragon if you want to have your projects quickly up and running and with less resources using than Homestead.

Thanks for the tip @automica !

I'm not a user of docker (yet) but I'll sure give it a try when the time comes!
