I'm just trying to create a new laravel project and faced with this message
Creating a "laravel/laravel" project at "./example-app"
Installing laravel/laravel (v8.5.22)
- Installing laravel/laravel (v8.5.22): Extracting archive
Created project in /home/alifirhas/0_Work/Belajar/postgresql/example-app

Loading composer repositories with package information

Your requirements could not be resolved to an installable set of packages.
Problem 1
- laravel/framework[v8.40.0, ..., 8.x-dev] require ext-mbstring * -> it is missing from your system. Install or enable PHP's mbstring extension.
- Root composer.json requires laravel/framework ^8.40 -> satisfiable by laravel/framework[v8.40.0, ..., 8.x-dev].
To enable extensions, verify that they are enabled in your .ini files:
- /etc/php/8.0/cli/php.ini
- /etc/php/8.0/cli/conf.d/10-opcache.ini
- /etc/php/8.0/cli/conf.d/10-pdo.ini
- /etc/php/8.0/cli/conf.d/20-calendar.ini
- /etc/php/8.0/cli/conf.d/20-ctype.ini
- /etc/php/8.0/cli/conf.d/20-exif.ini
- /etc/php/8.0/cli/conf.d/20-ffi.ini
- /etc/php/8.0/cli/conf.d/20-fileinfo.ini
- /etc/php/8.0/cli/conf.d/20-ftp.ini
- /etc/php/8.0/cli/conf.d/20-gettext.ini
- /etc/php/8.0/cli/conf.d/20-iconv.ini
- /etc/php/8.0/cli/conf.d/20-phar.ini
- /etc/php/8.0/cli/conf.d/20-posix.ini
- /etc/php/8.0/cli/conf.d/20-readline.ini
- /etc/php/8.0/cli/conf.d/20-shmop.ini
- /etc/php/8.0/cli/conf.d/20-sockets.ini
- /etc/php/8.0/cli/conf.d/20-sysvmsg.ini
- /etc/php/8.0/cli/conf.d/20-sysvsem.ini
- /etc/php/8.0/cli/conf.d/20-sysvshm.ini
- /etc/php/8.0/cli/conf.d/20-tokenizer.ini
You can also run `php --ini` inside terminal to see which files are used by PHP in CLI mode.
Looks like I have to install php-mbstring on my computer, so I run the command
sudo apt-get install php-mbstring
as i found in this thread: laravel/framework requires ext-mbstring
But there is another error message

This is the error code when i run sudo apt install php7.4-mbstring

What have I tried
- Reinstalled php7.4 on my computer then try to install mbstring, but fail
- Update my php version to version -8 then try to install mbstring, but fail
- Do what is in this thread: https://askubuntu.com/questions/1064634/unable-to-install-php-mbstring, but fail
So does anyone know how to install php-mbstring? or how can i make a laravel project?
I hope you guys can help me with this problem, please. I've been working on this problem for almost 8 hours and still can't find a solution.
