Seems like you're running older PHP version. Please double check if you're really on PHP 8.1, both on web page and CLI.

Laravel: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '|', expecting variable
Getting a rather annoying error, running PHP 8.1 with a fresh install of Laravel 10 but this keeps appearing even though the all packages are up to date with no conflicts. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '|', expecting variable (T_VARIABLE) in app/vendor/nunomaduro/termwind/src/Functions.php on line 17
