Why doesn't the Laravel folder structure match after installation?

Question

Laravel

After installation, the folder structure of Laravel does not match, from the word voo ... Well, maybe something coincides, but when I decided to start studying, I got into guides for beginners, and at the first stages from the word - in general.
app/routes.php does not exist, I found a similar one in routes/web.php
app/views does not have
app/config (it does not exist in other places either, but according to the guides you need to configure the database)
Well, etc. etc.
The installation went almost without errors. The first time, on the old composer, it gave warnings, demolished, updated and the installation was clean.
System: Windows, Composer 2.0.8, Laravel Framework 8.18.1, PHP 7.4
Installation command: composer create-project --prefer-dist laravel/laravel school_rating
What is wrong with me and how can I fix it?

Answer 1

guides are probably from version 5, if it’s not the 4th version at all, it’s
easy to fix - look not at the “guides”, but at the documentation
