valet
Valet is a command line tool specifically designed for macOS users to simplify local development environments.
It is built on top of Homebrew and Caddy, providing a seamless experience for setting up and managing development server configurations.
With Valet, developers can easily create a new local development site by simply navigating to the site's folder and executing a single command.
It automatically configures the site to use a .test
domain and sets up the necessary server configurations and DNS resolution.
Valet also supports custom domain names and secure HTTPS connections with the help of built-in SSL certificate generation.
Developers can also utilize additional features offered by Valet, such as serving PHP applications, managing multiple versions of PHP, and automatically handling database connections.
Ultimately, Valet aims to streamline the process of setting up and managing local development environments, allowing developers to focus on their projects rather than infrastructure.
