-
-3 - Enter the Workspace container. (assuming you have the Workspace container running):
-
-```bash

-Replace `{Workspace-Container-Name}` with your Workspace container name. To get the name type `docker-compose ps` and copy it.
-
-4 - Install Laravel anyway you like. 
-

-By default LaraDock assumes the Laravel application is living in the parent directory of the laradock folder. 
-
-Since the new Laravel application is in the `my-cool-app` folder, we should replace `../:/var/www/laravel` with `../my-cool-app/:/var/www/laravel`, as follow:
-
-```yaml
-    application:
