To follow along this course you can download the laravel-starter-app that I've already attached in the course resource. Basically it's a fresh Laravel project using version 7.
I provided it for you to avoid you facing any issues when you're using different versions of Laravel. Throughout this course we'll be using Laravel 7. But don't worry because as I said in the introduction we'll see how to upgrade our Laravel app to the newest version to make our application up-to-date and you'll also know what's changes between versions.
