Your error tells you clearly your version of Socialite requires Laravel 5.4. But you are using Laravel 5.3 – EddyTheDove

In console:

composer require laravel/socialite:~2.0

Your error states you need Laravel 5.4 to work with the version of socialite you are installing. You can target a lower version of socialite by adding the following to your composer.json file: 

"laravel/socialite": "~2.0"

Then run composer update
