Updating from Development to Test Environment

I'm relatively new to PHP/Laravel.

My current setup is a Development Environment which will have Composer installed. Once I finish development, I would like to "transfer" the files to the Production environment. Production environment will not have Composer installed.

So what is the best approach of updating the Production environment. For example, can I copy the "required" folders from the Development Server to the Production Server? Thanks.

The best way would be to install composer on your production environment :-)

Otherwise, copying the folders would be the only way I guess - but that is not ideal.

I know, Composer is not allowed in our production environment.
