How to add new PHP versions to MAMP on a Mac

Adding Versions of PHP to MAMP on a Mac

If you're working on a project that requires a version of PHP higher than the versions that MAMP comes with, you can easily add additional verions.

My version of MAMP came installed with PHP 7.4.21 and 8.0.8. I'm attempting to use MAMP to host a Laravel application which requires at least PHP 8.1.

The version of PHP MAMP uses is often different than the version you have installed. I have installed PHP using Brew. I'm currently running PHP 8.1.8. If you want to check your installed version of PHP, use the terminal and run the following command:

php --version

Setting up your username.github.io page

Setting up your username.github.io Page

When you setup GitHub pages, by default your content is available at https://<GITHUB_USERNAMNE>.github.io/<REPO_NAME>/.

However, if you create a repo with the exact name <GITHUB_USERNAME>.github.io, GitHub will automatically turn GitHub Pages on, and make this content avialable at https://<GITHUB_USERNAME>.github.io/. Kind of like your GitHub home page!

For example, I set up a sample at:
https://github.com/codeadamca/codeadamca.github.io

The repo is avilable as a website at:
