if you are running a fresh downloaded project , remember to make you own .env file with correct settings
running serve
command with no .env file make this error.

If you want a persistent server, you should look into server software like WAMP or XAMPP.
Note that this is expected behavior for the
php artisan serve command

because with this kind of server (like: LARAGON), running 'php artisan serve' is necessary, so if you close the terminal, 'php artisan serve' will automaticaly stop running, then the server will stop too, then you can't reach anymore your localhost.

If you don't have a HTTP server (like WAMP or similar installed), you'll need to keep the Command Prompt / Terminal window running at all times. Closing the window or stopping the php artisan server
command will terminate the server that's running the website.
