Certainly! Here’s a solution to your question:
If you want to create a new Laravel project with an older version (e.g., version 12), you don't have to use the Laravel Installer. Instead, you can use Composer and specify the desired version.
To create a new Laravel 12 project:
composer create-project laravel/laravel="12.*" project-name
Replace project-name with your desired folder name.
About installing the Vue starter kit:
You can add a starter kit (like Breeze or Jetstream) to your newly created Laravel 12 project via Composer. For example, for Laravel Breeze with Vue support:
- Require the starter kit:
composer require laravel/breeze --dev
- Install Breeze with the Vue stack:
php artisan breeze:install vue
- Install NPM dependencies and build:
npm install
npm run dev
Note:
You can add starter kits to an existing Laravel install as long as the version requirements match. Most starter kits are versions matched to Laravel, so check the documentation for the correct version of the starter kit if you run into any problems.
Summary
- Use
composer create-projectto start a new Laravel project at the desired version. - Use Composer to install and configure starter kits after the project is created.
