Error while running php artisan serve command on localhost

I am having issues with php artisan serve command. I am working on one Laravel project and when I access the folder from browser it is working fine but when I run the php artisan serve command it shows me the following error:

Warning: require(E:\xampp\htdocs\www\LFS\public../vendor/autoload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in E:\xampp\htdocs\www\LFS\public\index.php on line 24

Fatal error: require(): Failed opening required 'E:\xampp\htdocs\www\LFS\public../vendor/autoload.php' (include_path='E:\xampp\php\PEAR') in E:\xampp\htdocs\www\LFS\public\index.php on line 24

I am new to Laravel please let me know where I am going wrong.

I have checked the code in the public/index.php file below is my code. I guess everything is fine I just copy-paste the same index.php file on my root folder.

<?php

/**
 * Laravel - A PHP Framework For Web Artisans
 *
 * @package  Laravel
 * @author   Taylor Otwell <[email protected]>
 */

define('LARAVEL_START', microtime(true));

/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Register The Auto Loader
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Composer provides a convenient, automatically generated class loader for
| our application. We just need to utilize it! We'll simply require it
| into the script here so that we don't have to worry about manual
| loading any of our classes later on. It feels great to relax.
|
*/

require __DIR__.'../vendor/autoload.php';

/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Turn On The Lights
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| We need to illuminate PHP development, so let us turn on the lights.
| This bootstraps the framework and gets it ready for use, then it
| will load up this application so that we can run it and send
| the responses back to the browser and delight our users.
|
*/

$app = require_once __DIR__.'../bootstrap/app.php';

/*
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
| Run The Application
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------
|
| Once we have the application, we can handle the incoming request
| through the kernel, and send the associated response back to
| the client's browser allowing them to enjoy the creative
| and wonderful application we have prepared for them.
|
*/

$kernel = $app->make(Illuminate\Contracts\Http\Kernel::class);

$response = $kernel->handle(
    $request = Illuminate\Http\Request::capture()
);

$response->send();

$kernel->terminate($request, $response);

I want that the project can be directly accessible from the browser and should also run on the php artisan serve command.

In your project folder, the vendor folder is missing so you got this error:

Warning: require(E:\xampp\htdocs\www\LFS\public../vendor/autoload.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory

Just run this command:

composer update --no-scripts 
composer update

With this command, you will re-create the vendor folder in your project
