larasail: Set up the server with Laravel dependencies using the default PHP version.
$ larasail setup
try on your machine

The command "larasail setup" is a command specific to the Laravel Sail package. Laravel Sail is a lightweight Docker development environment for Laravel projects.

When you run "larasail setup" command, it sets up the necessary Docker containers and configurations required to run a Laravel application using Sail. This command is typically used to initialize the development environment and prepare it for deployment.

Specifically, the "larasail setup" command does the following:

  1. Checks if Docker is running on the local machine.
  2. Creates a Docker volume for persistent data storage.
  3. Copies the Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml files required for Sail.
  4. Generates a Docker image for the Laravel application.
  5. Sets up the Docker containers based on the configurations specified in the docker-compose.yml file.
  6. Installs the necessary dependencies and sets up the development environment.

Once the "larasail setup" command is successfully executed, you should have a functional Docker-based development environment for your Laravel application, allowing you to run and test your Laravel project using Docker containers.
