Setting Up A Development Environment
Posted: Sun Nov 19, 2006 11:40 pm
Hello everyone,
Like several others users I just got a new Macbook and am looking to have a more structured development path for my php application. Right now I just edit the files directly on my server which I know is horrible.
So, I am probably going to be installing VMWare with the linux distribution and php/mysql versions found on my webserver. Does this sound like a good idea and does anyone have any good suggestions or recommendations?
Also, would it be preferred for me to get a cheap box and set it up on my LAN as a development box?
Thanks,
Kevin
