To change the App URL of a Laravel application, you can specify it from the .env (environment) file. By having the APP_URL updated instead of using the "http://localhost" you will have a pretty URL when generating images, assets path and etc.
APP_NAME="Example App" APP_ENV=local APP_KEY= APP_DEBUG=true APP_URL=https://example.test
Once you have done that do make sure to clear your config cache or restart your local webserver for the changes to get reflected.
php artisan cache:clear
