im new in laravel and i have done my first project, I have xampp,mysql and windows server 2012 (installed with composer and laravel 7). i'm running the application in server via command below
php artisan serve --host=[ip] --port=[port]
application is running fine within the network. However, it seems super slow. I'm not sure if this the correct way of deploying it into production. Do you have any recommendation/instructions where can i run/deploy apps within the resource that I have.
Speed of your laravel project depends on many parameters like hardware config (CPU,RAM,...) and also number of users and level of requests and processes. But consider that for an app in production it's better to not use php artisan serve command. It's only for development environment. I don't that how much you know about linux but I suggest you to change your stack and use linux as your production os with nginx as web server alongside php-fpm for running your app in production. But for now you should config xmapp's apache web server to run your application from project's public folder.

I have a Laravel app running locally using ./vendor/bin/sail up. I also have a trivial NodeJS server (running locally as well) that waits 60 seconds on each request and returns dummy data. The Laravel app makes a request to the Node app and becomes unresponsive to client requests until the 60 seconds are up.
Is this a limitation of the Laravel dev server? Is there a setting I'm missing?
Answering my own question.
Laravel uses php artisan serve underneath sail, which in turn uses the built-in server, which by default "runs only one single-threaded process."
However, "You can configure the built-in webserver to fork multiple workers in order to test code that requires multiple concurrent requests to the built-in webserver. Set the PHP_CLI_SERVER_WORKERS environment variable to the number of desired workers before starting the server. This is not supported on Windows."
Adding PHP_CLI_SERVER_WORKERS=5 to my .env file fixed the issue.
I’m not too familiar with the server technologies. So my question is is it ok to deploy a project developed under Laravel Sail environment (which uses Nginx as default web server i guess) to a server which runs Apache? Will it work? Should i expect any problems?
Laravel Sail is not for production. It also doesn't use apache or nginx, but php's build in web server (php artisan serve). So please use your own, or have a look at my config.
I have modified the docker file to work with Sail and Apache for development purpose. You can take a look on Gitlab link here to have some idea for your production environment.
I am tasked to develop a laravel project for our company. I have to deploy it within the company's network only. It is my first time to do it and haven't find any good source of instruction so far. I hope you can help me with this. I am using XAMPP for this one. And the machine runs on a Windows Server 2016.
Laravel applications are easy to install on IIS. You can use the url_rewrite extension to import the rules from the .htaccess file. Other than that it is really no different than deploying to any other server.
You can also use your company's local DNS to point to the server if you wish to access it via https://my-app.company.com.
May sure you all are one in common network
sudo php artisan serve --host 0.0.0.0 --port 81 (you can change the port if you want)
Other people will be able to access with you'r IP address http://your-pc-id-address:81
I am very new to Laravel and i love coding locally so of course i am using Homestead. Does Homestead use Nginx or Apache? A question before i send my site online when i get it completed.
Laravel 5.6 is the current and latest. I am using that. I am also using the latest version of Homestead as of 5/7/2018.
By default Homestead goes with Nginx but it's also possible to use Apache.
You can read more about it here: https://laravel.com/docs/5.6/homestead :
Homestead uses the Nginx web server by default. However, it can install Apache if apache is specified as a site type. While both web servers can be installed at the same time, they cannot both be running at the same time. The flip shell command is available to ease the process of switching between web servers. The flip command automatically determines which web server is running, shuts it off, and then starts the other server. To use this command, SSH into your Homestead machine and run the command in your terminal:

I have a Laravel Project that I develop in PhpStorm. I use the build in PhpStorm web server for development and debugging. (localhost:8000) Now I need to be able to access that server from another device within the same network.
Google search and jetbrains.com have not been very helpful. I have tried this (https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/207020155-phpstorm-and-http-server-localhost-only-) but it did not work.
Any help?
EDIT:
I found the problem. Since the web server is launched via artisan, it ignores my PhpStorm settings. I needed to change the launch parameter, like so:
php artisan serve --host=0.0.0.0 --port=8000
