how to run laravel project

    Create a database locally named homestead utf8_general_ci
    Download composer https://getcomposer.org/download/
    Pull Laravel/php project from git provider.
    Rename .env.example file to .envinside your project root and fill the database information. (windows wont let you do it, so you have to open your console cd your project root directory and run mv .env.example .env )
    Open the console and cd your project root directory
    Run composer install or php composer.phar install
    Run php artisan key:generate
    Run php artisan migrate
    Run php artisan db:seed to run seeders, if any.
    Run php artisan serve

#####You can now access yo

ur project at localhost:8000 :)

php artisan serve

The full command works like this:

php artisan serve --host=<host IP address> --port=<port to use>

php artisan serve --host=127.0.0.1 --port=8080

php artisan serve

// run laravel project 
php artisan serve --port="port" --host="host"

laravel run server

php artisan serve // will use localhost and 8000 port by default

run laravel without php artisan serve

if your laravel application running in server/hosting, 
just change DocumentRoot pointing to /path/to/your-laravel-app/public

php run server laravel

Route::get('users', function()
{
    $users = User::all();

    return View::make('users')->with('users', $users);
});
