Refresh your browser with CTRL + F5, it could help to you. It's like a hard refresh.

php artisan view:clear not working
I'm working on a Laravel project (version 7.0) with PHP version 7.4.1. (OS = Windows 10)
I have a problem that's been bugging me since I started a Laravel project. Whenever I run php artisan view:clear and reload the page to see my updates, the page doesn't always update. Sometimes it does, sometimes I have to wait a few minutes before reloading and seeing if it changes. Development is becoming increasingly frustrating due to all this "down time". From my knowledge, the views are supposed to be updated right away...any ideas on what the problem is?

view clear
- should not be necessary
- should be immediate.
to check it is having an effect, examine the storage/framework/views folder before and after the command. All the command does is delete all the files in that folder

I've tried hard refresh, but without success. view:clear does clean the entire storage/framework/views folder, but it still doesn't work. I do notice that if I delete what's under the session folder, though, everything's cleared and the newest version loads. Is there a shortcut for clearing the session folder?

Try ctrl f5 or cmd f5 after clearing

Is it the design that is not updating , or the data ?

if you are facing issue on CSS or image rendering, perhaps open another new inPrivate/inCognito session with different profile may help...

If it's the design that's not updating and you're using Laravel Mix you could try versioning your JS/CSS files: https://laravel.com/docs/7.x/mix#versioning-and-cache-busting
Level 1
It's the blade that isn't updating. I have disabled cache on my browser, so CSS and JS files are not a problem.

Are you using Laravel's built in server (php artisan serve) or another webserver like XAMP, IIS, etc?
Have you considered installing Homestead instead? https://laravel.com/docs/7.x/homestead
I know it's quite a lot of work, but if it fixes the problem for good...
