title: Laravel in PHP 8 dev
body: <p>I have a docker container with php 8.0.0-dev and composer. I want to create a Laravel application to test the new PHP but I have some errors.</p>
  <p>When I try to create a new laravel project with the command:</p>
  <pre><code>composer create-project laravel/laravel test
  </code></pre>
  <p>The error I get is that I don't have the required PHP even though php 8.0.0 is greater than php 7.x.</p>
  <pre><code>Loading composer repositories with package information
  Updating dependencies (including require-dev)
  Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.
  
    Problem 1
      - laravel/framework v5.6.9 requires php ^7.1.3 -&gt; your PHP version (8.0.0-dev) does not satisfy that requirement.
      - laravel/framework v5.6.8 requires php ^7.1.3 -&gt; your PHP version (8.0.0-dev) does not satisfy that requirement.

  <p>Can I skip the php version check somehow?</p>
  <p>I have tried with</p>
  <pre><code>--prefer-dist
  </code></pre>
  <p>and</p>
  <pre><code>--ignore-platform-reqs
  </code></pre>
  <p>but i obtain this error:</p>
  <pre><code> Problem 1
      - Conclusion: don't install laravel/laravel v7.25.0|remove laravel/laravel v7.25.0
      - Installation request for laravel/laravel v7.25.0 -&gt; satisfiable by laravel/laravel[v7.25.0].
