iOS, The Future Of macOS, Freedom, Security And Privacy In An Increasingly Hostile Global Environment

Mac OSX Sierra : Brew Apache + Mysql + PHP Switcher + DNSMasq + SSL

Mac OSX Sierra : Brew Apache + Mysql + PHP Switcher + DNSMasq + SSL 👍

Things I had to do using Homebrew to get my local web dev environment back up and running after migration to OSX Sierra + Xcode 8.1.

Note: I used brew reinstall because I had already installed most of this previously under Yosemite. Probably better ways to do this, but this is what worked for me.

brew doctor

brew tap homebrew/dupes
brew tap homebrew/versions

Nginx, PHP-FPM, MySQL and phpMyAdmin on OS X

This is my take on how to get up and running with NGINX, PHP-FPM, MySQL and phpMyAdmin on OSX Yosemite.

Xcode

Make sure you have the latest version of XCode installed. Available from the Mac App Store.

Install the Xcode Command Line Tools:

xcode-select --install

Doing a respring the right way

Respringing the "right way" allows SpringBoard to save usage data. Otherwise, your usage data is lost and the standby/usage times are reset to "–" until you fully charge again.

Tweaks that respring the right way

  • Activator
  • Auxo
  • Flipswitch
  • Springtomize

(There are probably a few more)
