Question

When trying to create a project on Ubuntu 16.04 with PHP 7, I am getting the following error:

Could not find package laravel-laravel with stability stable

Whats the solution for that?

Answer 1

you have a typo , use this

  composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel test

Answer 2

It's not laravel-laravel, it's laravel/laravel.

You use vendor/package-name with composer.
