How can I access my Laravel app from another PC?

Question

I\'m trying to access my Laravel app from another PC in the same network using IP address but I can\'t get it to work by accessing 192.168.1.101:8000 in my browser.

Answer 1

You can do it by using laravel's built in command php artisan serve.

Follow the steps:

1. Go to your project's root directory within command line.
2. run php artisan serve

If you still can't access port 8000 or it is already in use then run:

php artisan serve --port 8383

And it should listen on new port you provided. Also you can set other options for this command. Look for the help php artisan help serve.
