laragon
Laragon is a portable, isolated, fast & powerful universal development environment for PHP, Node.js, Python, Java, Go, Ruby. It is fast, lightweight, easy-to-use and easy-to-extend.
Laravel has a built in server which leverages local PHP. I use that combined with https://dbngin.com/ for MySQL + Redis. Then frontend is ran with local node (via https://volta.sh/, also very quick)

Docker is a pain to work with and unless you have a need for it (i.e. complex infra you need to replicate locally or sharing container images across a team) I'd highly recommend just using Laragon, assuming you're working on a windows machine locally. It's super easy to setup, swap out dependencies (php versions, node versions, mysql versions, etc) and comes with a ton of preconfigured one-click setup options for laravel, WordPress and a bunch of other libraries/frameworks. https://laragon.org/
