About:
PHPWebStudy is a desktop application for macOS that provides a unified interface for managing local PHP, web server, and database environments. It simplifies the setup and configuration of development stacks like Apache, Nginx, MySQL, and Redis, allowing developers to quickly create isolated project environments.
Key Features:
  • Integrated management of PHP versions, web servers (Apache/Nginx), and databases (MySQL/Redis)
  • One-click environment creation and switching for different projects
  • Graphical user interface for managing service statuses and configurations
  • Port management and virtual host configuration
Use Cases:
  • Local PHP and web application development on macOS
  • Quickly setting up and tearing down different project environments for testing
  • Managing multiple versions of PHP and database servers for compatibility testing
Alternatives:
  • Laravel Valet – Valet is a lighter, command-line only Laravel-focused development environment for Mac, while PHPWebStudy offers a GUI and manages broader server stacks.
  • MAMP – MAMP is a similar GUI-based local server stack manager, but PHPWebStudy is specifically tailored for a more customizable PHP development workflow.
