Quick Mac Web Development Environment Setup with Brew, Node, PHP, Composer, MySQL and Valet.

SETUP.md

Use to easily setup your macbook's environment

1. Install Homebrew

/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install.sh)"

If Xcode is not installed, you'll be prompted to install it. Go.

2. GIT

brew update
brew install git

3. PHP

brew install php

4. Composer

See (Here)[https://getcomposer.org/download/] Basically 4 lines, at time of creation of this are:

php -r "copy('https://getcomposer.org/installer', 'composer-setup.php');"
php -r "if (hash_file('sha384', 'composer-setup.php') === 'e5325b19b381bfd88ce90a5ddb7823406b2a38cff6bb704b0acc289a09c8128d4a8ce2bbafcd1fcbdc38666422fe2806') { echo 'Installer verified'; } else { echo 'Installer corrupt'; unlink('composer-setup.php'); } echo PHP_EOL;"
php composer-setup.php
php -r "unlink('composer-setup.php');"
mv composer.phar /usr/local/bin/composer

Make sure to include composer into your path either ~/.bash_profile or ~/.zhc... That will probably look something like this:

nano ~/.bash_profile

export PATH="$HOME/.composer/vendor/bin:$PATH" and save the file. Either source it, or close and re-open your terminal. Test installation with composer --help.

5. Valet

Install Laravel's Valet, this is quick and painless setup. See for (reference)[https://laravel.com/docs/7.x/valet]

composer global require laravel/valet
valet install

6 MySQL

brew install mysql@5.7
brew services start mysql@5.7

7. Node

Node

brew install node

And that's it. A basic env setup painless and quickly. Intended for personal and team's use mostly.
