Laravel Herd for Windows is now released! image

Laravel Herd is a blazingly fast, native Laravel and PHP development environment. It’s now available for everyone running Windows machines. It includes everything you need to start Laravel development, including PHP and Nginx. Once you install Herd, you're ready to start developing with Laravel.

Herd Features Include

The fastest environment around

Herd uses native binaries for PHP, nginx, and other services, making it faster than other PHP development environments. No containers, VMs, or wonky virtualization methods – just plain binaries as it should be.

Herd will install tools you need for development, like Composer, the Laravel installer, and more.

Everything you need to get started

Herd includes binaries for Composer, the Laravel installer, and Expose, which are automatically available to your CLI.

This makes it possible to manage your sites via Powershell or use the Herd site wizard.

Unlock your real productivity

Herd Pro comes with services for databases, caches, queues, storage, and realtime applications, changing how you work.

You can manage everything you ever need from one beautiful application.
