Step 1: Download PHP and save it in the folder C:\Program Files\php, sent the path to this folder.

Step 2: Download Composer and save it in the folder C:\Program Files\php\php.exe

Step 3: Download vagrant and virtualbox. Then run those lines in the command

C:\Users\mreal>vagrant box add laravel/homestead --box-version 8.1.0

can work with are listed below. Please review the list and choose
the provider you will be working with.

Step 4: Create laravel and I get error

C:\Users\mreal>composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel laravel-essentials
Creating a "laravel/laravel" project at "./laravel-essentials"

  Problem 1
    - laravel/framework[v8.75.0, ..., 8.x-dev] require league/flysystem ^1.1 -> satisfiable by league/flysystem[1.1.0, ..., 1.x-dev].
    - league/flysystem[1.1.0, ..., 1.x-dev] require ext-fileinfo * -> it is missing from your system. Install or enable PHP's fileinfo extension.
    - Root composer.json requires laravel/framework ^8.75 -> satisfiable by laravel/framework[v8.75.0, ..., 8.x-dev].

To enable extensions, verify that they are enabled in your .ini files:
    - C:\Program Files\php\php.ini
You can also run `php --ini` in a terminal to see which files are used by PHP in CLI mode.
Alternatively, you can run Composer with `--ignore-platform-req=ext-fileinfo` to temporarily ignore these required extensions.
