My Laravel Project is not working without php artisan serve command

I am currently working on laravel 5.5 In my machine I also have installed composer, and installed a larvel project using laravel installer, which was installed by composer. Now when on my machine I run php artisan cache:clear, php artisan route:clear, php artisan key:generate, php artisan serve commands and clicked the link provided (i.e localhost:8000 ) in terminal,by this project is running fine but, but when I am entering the url in the browser like localhost\laravel\public it is not running correctly.
