It's opinionated: it does not support everything under the sun but you can customize the container to suit your needs. It supports macOS, WSL2 (Windows) and Linux and it needs docker. Laser has a shell script around docker-compose as an interface to it, it exposes all docker-compose commands and extends it with it's own subcommands and recognizes which project you want to use by the current directory when you call `laser artisan` for example.
