Maybe this article can help you. Remember to edit the.env file in your project root directory to set the environment variables value

 DB_CONNECTION=mysql
 DB_HOST=127.0.0.1
 DB_PORT=3306
 DB_DATABASE=database_name
 DB_USERNAME=root
 DB_PASSWORD=

By default, the Xampp user is root, with no password
