make:auth on Bitnami Docker image?

I am brand new to Laravel. I'm starting by watching a youtube video. The video starts by showing how to install Laravel. I figured I'd skip all that and go straight to a Docker image. That seems fine at first. The next thing the video shows is running artisan make:auth, but this doesn't seem to exist in the Bitnami Docker image. Is the Docker image supposed to be just for development purposes? What does Laravel in production look like? I'm the kind of person that needs a really high-level view of the devops layout on this, before I'm comfortable getting into the weeds.

Thank you.

Can you post a link to the exact image you are using? Did you enter into the docker container before running the command?

The image most likely have no dedicated commands for laravel. You can use laravel sail or Lando if you want that

The artisan file is inside the laravel root directory. So you execute it with php

php artisan make:auth

@Sinnbeck This is the image: hub[dot]docker[dot]com/r/bitnami/laravel/

php artisan make:auth

Command "make:auth" is not defined.

Did you mean one of these? make:cast make:channel make:command make:component make:controller make:event make:exception make:factory make:job make:listener make:mail make:middleware make:migration make:model make:notification make:observer make:policy make:provider make:request make:resource make:rule make:seeder make:test

@gravity.freeze@gmail.com I'm not Sinnbeck but make:auth is in older versions of laravel.

I suggest not following the YouTube video rather follow laravel documentation. Again just suggestion.
