Answer 1

Open localhost/phpmyadmin and find a tab called User accounts.

Find the root user and set its password in your .env and also don't forget to create the database named laravel if it doesn't exist

Then you can clear config cache

php artisan config:clear

And migrate

php artisan migrate

Hope this helps
