  'Excel' => Maatwebsite\Excel\Facades\Excel::class,
], 

Execute the vendor, publish the command, and publish the config.

php artisan vendor:publish --provider="Maatwebsite\Excel\ExcelServiceProvider" --tag=config

composer require maatwebsite/excel

Step 4: Generate Fake Data and Migrate Table

php artisan tinker

After Opening the tinker, you need to run this command to generate the fake records in our database.

User::factory()->count(100)->create();
