Worked for me, just I had to put $HOME instead of ~

export PATH="$HOME/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH"

In my case, I had already installed Composer and Laravel using
$ composer global require laravel/installer
but Laravel was not available at the terminal.
Using the following worked for me:
$ export PATH="~/.config/composer/vendor/bin:$PATH"

Thanks a lot!

Install Laravel

composer global require laravel/installer

composer global require "laravel/installer"
Edit environment config,

nano .bashrc

Then add,

export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.config/composer/vendor/bin"
Then reload path config,

source ~/.bashrc

That finally worked.

Is there anyway to only create the projects using the larvel 9 installer rather than the latest one.

Thanks!

While Using zshell
