Answer 1

You need to change "server.php" to "index.php" then copy ".htaccess" from public to root directory.

Answer 2

Laravel sever Folder is "public". There is an index.php so you can run you project from there.

Suppose if you using UbuntuOS then you have to create your local server in public directory. Suppose your folder name is laravel_test then go in that directory and run some thing like this

php -S localhost:8000 -t public

If you using windows then access public folder from URL.

localhost/laravel/public

Actually it's bad practise to access folder from URL but for local its good. You also can go with host entry. Just make sure that your target folder is "public" directory.
