Fresh install of Laravel 11 fails during migrate because PHP SqlLite driver is not configured

Description

The webpage https://laravel.com/docs/11.x/installation mentions:

Executing php composer.phar create-project laravel/laravel:^11.0 tripfiles gives the following error:

Steps To Reproduce

• Disable the SqlLite extension in the php.ini
• Execute php composer.phar create-project laravel/laravel:^11.0 tripfiles

A pre-install step is missing. This should check the Php requirements like minimum Php version and required Php extensions (SqlLite, ...) before installing. And abort the installation if requirements fail.

Can you try php composer.phar create-project laravel/laravel tripfiles? That should address the issue, as the --graceful flag was added on the migrate command. You probably on Windows, so using ^11.0 will make you use Laravel 11.0.0 that does not have yet the --graceful flag.

Meanwhile, made a PR on the docs to remove the ^11.0 (caret), that is not supported on Windows:

I'm indeed on Windows. I can confirm that php composer.phar create-project laravel/laravel tripfiles installs correctly.
