How to move Laravel 11 public folder?

I have tried to search for tutorial to move the public folder, but from all the guide it seems like the code is different than version 11. The folder structure I want to move will be like:

I have modified the public/index.php file to be:

<?php

use Illuminate\Http\Request;

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

// Determine if the application is in maintenance mode...
if (file_exists($maintenance = __DIR__.'/../program/storage/framework/maintenance.php')) {
    require $maintenance;
}

// Register the Composer autoloader...
require __DIR__.'/../program/vendor/autoload.php';

// Bootstrap Laravel and handle the request...
(require_once __DIR__.'/../program/bootstrap/app.php')
    ->handleRequest(Request::capture());

However, when I try to run php artisan serve, I get the error

   Symfony\Component\Process\Exception\RuntimeException

  The provided cwd "C:\wamp64\www\my-project\program\public" does not exist.

What are the things needed to modify to get it works?

Update Bootstrap/app.php
------------ replace top 4 lines with old script. ----------------
return Application::configure(basePath: dirname(__DIR__))
->registered(function ($app) {
    $app->usePublicPath(path: realpath(base_path('/../yourpath')));
})
    ->withRouting(
        web: __DIR__.'/../routes/web.php',
        api: __DIR__.'/../routes/api.php',
        commands: __DIR__.'/../routes/console.php',
        health: '/up',
    )
    ->withMiddleware(function (Middleware $middleware) {
        //
    })
    ->withExceptions(function (Exceptions $exceptions) {
        //
    })->create();

To make artisan use a custom public folder, you can edit the artisan script to call the usePublicPath() method on the application object.

Change these lines:

$status = (require_once __DIR__.'/bootstrap/app.php')
    ->handleCommand(new ArgvInput);

to:

$status = (require_once __DIR__.'/bootstrap/app.php')
    ->usePublicPath('/your/public/folder')
    ->handleCommand(new ArgvInput);
