(I’ve actually changed some of the other quickstarts to be like this, thought I’d done it with D8 too:

ddev config --project-type=drupal8 --create-docroot --docroot=web
ddev composer create...

And that skips the problem of changing the docroot back.

when executing ddev config --project-type drupal8

@leymannx Executing ddev config --project-type drupal8 doesn’t change the existing config.yaml for me. It stays as docroot: ""
