While installing Laravel 11 using the Laravel Installer (laravel new your_project_name), when prompted to select the database your application will use, if you choose MariaDB, you will not encounter collation errors during database migration. This is because, in the database.php file within the MariaDB configuration, the collation value is set to `utf8mb4_unicode_ci`: 'collation' => env('DB_COLLATION', 'utf8mb4_unicode_ci'), However, if you attempt to download Laravel 11 using Composer with the command: composer create-project laravel/laravel:^11.0 example-app The default collation value in the MariaDB configuration is set to `utf8mb4_uca1400_ai_ci`: 'collation' => env('DB_COLLATION', 'utf8mb4_uca1400_ai_ci'), As a result, you will encounter a collation error. To avoid this error when downloading Laravel 11, it is recommended to use the Laravel Installer and select MariaDB instead of MySQL when prompted to choose the database type during installation. This will ensure a compatible collation configuration and prevent collation errors during database migration. Also, Make sure you have PHP 8.2 installed on your system 📌📌📌
