Installation & Setup<br />

First Steps<br />

Before launching your Homestead environment, you must install VirtualBox 5.x⁴³ or VMWare⁴⁴ as<br />

well as Vagrant⁴⁵. All of these software packages provide easy-to-use visual installers for all popular<br />

operating systems.<br />

To use the VMware provider, you will need to purchase both VMware Fusion / Workstation and<br />

the VMware Vagrant plug-in⁴⁶. Though it is not free, VMware can provide faster shared folder<br />

performance out of the box.<br />

Installing The Homestead Vagrant Box<br />

Once VirtualBox / VMware and Vagrant have been installed, you should add the <strong>laravel</strong>/homestead<br />

box to your Vagrant installation using the following command in your terminal. It will take a few<br />

minutes to download the box, depending on your Internet connection speed:<br />

1 vagrant box add <strong>laravel</strong>/homestead<br />

If this command fails, make sure your Vagrant installation is up to date.<br />
