Looking to use Laravel in production? Try VMware Tanzu Application Catalog, the commercial edition of the Bitnami catalog.
Starting December 10th 2024, only the latest stable branch of any container will receive updates in the free Bitnami catalog. To access up-to-date releases for all upstream-supported branches, consider upgrading to Bitnami Premium. Previous versions already released will not be deleted. They are still available to pull from DockerHub.
Please check the Bitnami Premium page in our partner Arrow Electronics for more information.

Laravel requires access to a MySQL or MariaDB database to store information. We'll use the Bitnami Docker Image for MariaDB for the database requirements.

Among other things, the above command creates a container service, named myapp
, for Laravel development and bootstraps a new Laravel application in the application directory. You can use your favorite IDE for developing the application.
Note
If the application directory contained the source code of an existing Laravel application, the Bitnami Laravel Development Container would load the existing application instead of bootstrapping a new one.
After the application server has been launched in the myapp
service, visit http://localhost:8000
in your favorite web browser and you'll be greeted by the default Laravel welcome page.
Warning: This quick setup is only intended for development environments. You are encouraged to change the insecure default credentials and check out the available configuration options for the MariaDB container for a more secure deployment.
