Does laravel/homestead box comes with default website setup? - php

Question

I am trying to figure out if there is something wrong in my homestead setup
I am following the official direction. In the very end of the direction the tutorial said that accessing http://homestead.app is possible. However when I run the address in my chrome I get the No input file specified. message
I am not sure if this is the default page, so I checked my directory using
homestead ssh
and found out that
- map: /Users/Projects
to: /home/vagrant/Projects
both directory doesn't have any files inside, I am not sure if this is the default behavior, but according to this tutorial there should be a list of file in the folder
app artisan bootsrap composer.json composer.lock ....

I don't remember if homestead comes with a default website, but your homestead.yaml ( you can use homestead edit to open it )file should look like this:
---
ip: "192.168.10.10"
memory: 2048
cpus: 1
provider: virtualbox
authorize: ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
keys:
- ~/.ssh/id_rsa
folders: //This is where vagrant will look for your projects
- map: ~/Code //This is your host folder
to: /home/vagrant/Code //This is your homestead folder
sites: //These are the urls that nginx will serve
- map: homestead.app
to: /home/vagrant/Code/homestead/public
- map: site2.app
to: /home/vagrant/Code/site2/public
databases:
- homestead
variables:
- key: APP_ENV
value: local
Usually, homestead comes with a Code folder where you can find the laravel project (if there is one by default).
Also, remeber to add the urls to your hosts files.
