Laravel 5.7 requires PHP 7.1+.

[silas229]

oh okay, but how can I get PHP 7.1 via Raspbian apt-get?

[browner12]

that's a question for another place. I'd look on StackOverflow, or post a question there.

[silas229]

Okay, I found an answer. Thanks!

This problem occurs due to the reason of running _different PHP version on the same PC_,

Pre-Requiste,

Laravel 5.7 server requirement is PHP version > 7.1
check this link = https://laravel.com/docs/5.7/installation#server-requirements

For Eg,

1)I had WAMPP installed with PHP 7.1 and 5.6, with active PHP Version of 7.1, installed globally with environment variable of the user/system
2) I had a laragon running PHP version 7.2,

I installed laravel using command line and tries to execute php artisan serve or any php artisan command
command line shows

PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '=' in /www/computernetworks/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Support/Arr.php on line 388

so basically everything seems to be good as you see your PHP version on the web will be 7.2 but in my case when i check PHP version in command line using
php -v
it was displaying PHP Version as 7.1

So do one thing do remove the enviroment variable with global PHP environment.
Everything will work fine then.
Note : try to use one PHP version in your PC
