### Local development

You can run your **development server** using the dev command. This is useful for local development. The development server **automatically detects** changes to files and instantly displays them in all open browser windows.

```bash
npm run dev
```

To serve Laravel, you need to run following command as well in **separate terminal**:

```yang
php artisan serve
```

This will run your local server at **<http://127.0.0.1:8000>** Also, the Terminal shows something like this.

```dart

INFO  Server running on [http://127.0.0.1:8000].

Press Ctrl+C to stop the server
```

### **Deployment for Production**

The assets in your application will be versioned, bundled, and prepared for production deployment when you run the build command:

```bash
npm run build
```
