The command "lumen new ${application_name}" is used to create a new Lumen project with the specified application name.
Lumen is a PHP micro-framework built on the Laravel framework and is used for creating lightweight and fast microservices or APIs. The "lumen new" command initializes a new Lumen project by setting up the necessary project structure and files.
The "${application_name}" is a placeholder for the desired name of the application. You need to replace it with your preferred name without the curly braces. For example, if you want to create an application named "myapp", you would use the command "lumen new myapp".
Executing this command will create a new directory with the specified application name and initialize a basic Lumen project structure, including necessary configuration files, routes, and a minimal set of files to get started with development.
