Today I was playing around with a few php scripts that I’ve been writing to automate a couple of things on another web host. I also wanted to test them out and see them live before I uploaded them onto my web space. I could have easily just ran MAMP on my computer and just got around the obstacle that way but I’d figure that OS X comes pre-installed with Apache and PHP and might as well make use of it. I made a quick search and came across the FoundationPHP book site which details on how to do this as well as shows images of the process and basically just simplifies it as best as possible.
