Using valet has been a joy for years, but my custom local valet driver stopped working after updating to the latest valet (4.1) version due to a different driver folder and the use of namespace (fully php 8 mode). So I updated my local driver for WordPress projects where I hold the WordPress files in a separate ‘wp’ folder (to sperate them in the composer septup).. bla bla.. the file:

<?php

use Valet\Drivers\Specific\WordPressValetDriver;
 
class LocalValetDriver extends WordPressValetDriver
{
    public function __construct() {
        $this->subfolder = 'wp';
    }
	
    /**
     * Determine if the driver serves the request.
     */
    public function serves(string $sitePath, string $siteName, string $uri): bool
    {
        return is_dir($sitePath . '/' . $this->subfolder . '/wp-admin');
    }

    /**
     * Determine if the incoming request is for a static file.
     */
    public function isStaticFile(string $sitePath, string $siteName, string $uri)/*: string|false */
    {
        $paths = ['wp-admin/css', 'wp-includes'];
        foreach ($paths as $path) {
            if (false !== ($pos = stripos($uri, '/' . $path))) {
                $new_uri = '/' . $this->subfolder . substr($uri, $pos);
                if (file_exists($sitePath . $new_uri)) {
                    return $sitePath . $new_uri;
                }
            }
        }

        return parent::isStaticFile($sitePath, $siteName, $uri);
    }

    /**
     * Get the fully resolved path to the application's front controller.
     */
    public function frontControllerPath(string $sitePath, string $siteName, string $uri): string
    {
        $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']    = $uri;
        $_SERVER['SERVER_ADDR'] = '127.0.0.1';
        $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];

        $matched = false;
        $paths = ['wp-admin', 'wp-includes', 'wp-login'];
        foreach ($paths as $path) {
            if (false !== ($pos = stripos($uri, '/' . $path))) {
                $uri = '/' . $this->subfolder . substr( $uri, $pos );
            }
        }

        return parent::frontControllerPath(
            $sitePath, $siteName, $this->forceTrailingSlash($uri)
        );
    }
	
    private function forceTrailingSlash(string $uri): string
    {
        if (substr($uri, -1 * strlen('/wp-admin')) == '/wp-admin') {
            header('Location: '.$uri.'/');
            die;
        }

        return $uri;
    }
}
