Homestead is not compulsory. You can run Laravel with any common web server as long as you hit the proper requirements.

But Homestead does greatly ease the difficulty of having to setup a development environment, and it also lets you closely mimic your production server as to make the whole Download->Develop->Deploy process seamless.

Laravel Forge is a service that lets you manage your servers and set them up in such a way that almost mirrors Homestead. To See more, Go to the Laravel Forge Homepage
