Deploy Laravel Project to AWS EC2: Step-By-Step

We need to install a web-server to our EC2 server, to actually serve our web-project.

1. To install NginX enter:

root@ip-172-31-44-101:~# apt-get install nginx

2. Check the status of the NginX server using systemctl status nginx:

root@ip-172-31-44-101:~# systemctl status nginx
