| We're installing PHP 5.5 here, with the required `mcrypt` module: | ||

| brew install php55 php55-mcrypt |

Don't you have to setup some custom tap to use the php packages with homebrew?

We run the following before installing php with brew:
brew cleanup
brew doctor
brew update
brew tap homebrew/dupes
brew tap josegonzalez/homebrew-php
brew tap --repair

@stevie-mayhew Thanks for the feedback, I've linked to the troubleshooting docs for Homebrew. Good point on |
|
My beautiful IIS 6 docs are being removed... ;-) |
|
@chillu happy to have the vagrant repo linked to :) I would go into more detail about why vagrant is so awesome (portable dev environments, very few local deps, shareable and identical environments for your team, "like live" environments) |
|
@dhensby Awesome! Want to make a rewording suggestion for Vagrant? Is anything blocking the merge still? |
* Removed the `php.ini` configuration bits from both MAMP and Homebrew instructions, both actually come with reasonable defaults now (high `memory_limit`, `error_reporting` on full, `date.timezone` set). * Removed chapter about package install, we should favour composer now * Compressed the install wizard instructions
Mention composer there rather than just the package download.
Not linked from anywhere (other than the menu). IIS 6.0 is part of Windows 2003, which has been EOLed as far as I can tell: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle?p1=3198

Improved install docs (Vagrant, Homebrew, MAMP)
Modified some offline instructions from @halkyon to get Homebrew going, but went the custom PHP binary route rather than mucking around with PECL. More details in commit messages.
@camfindlay Are you OK with adding the Bitnami reference?
@dhensby Are you OK with linking to your/BetterBrief's Vagrant installer?
