google cloud platform : using the lamp stack


when i first install my LAMP stack on Google cloud, I am at a loss trying to find my way  through. The only thing available was ssh. What if  i wanted to install Laravel?

Thankfully it came with "Composer" - PHP dependency manager. I was able to fire up my ssh and just install Laravel using the following command :-

composer global require "laravel/installer=~1.1"

Phew that's was easy

Once you have installed that, $HOME/.composer/vendor/bin/laravel new blog

And you have just created your first project :)
