+### Use Symfony local webserver
+
+You will need to use [Symfony local server](https://symfony.com/doc/current/setup/symfony_server.html) and its [proxy](https://symfony.com/doc/current/setup/symfony_server.html#setting-up-the-local-proxy).
+
+First, start Symfony proxy by doing `symfony proxy:start` in the project folder.
+
+Then, create a [symlink](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Symbolic_link) pointing to your project folder for each of your applications. You can keep them in a folder in your project or outside it, as you prefer.
+
+    ├── applications/
+    │   ├── admin
+    |   ├── api
+    |   └── site
+    ├── config/
+    ├── src/
+    └── var/
+
+Next, you'll need to configure each local server and start it. To do so, you will use the created symlinks, like so:
+
+```
+# start admin local server
+APP_CONTEXT=admin symfony proxy:domain:attach admin --dir=[project folder path]/applications/admin
+APP_CONTEXT=admin symfony server:start --dir=[project folder path]/applications/admin
+
+# start api local server
+APP_CONTEXT=api symfony proxy:domain:attach api --dir=[project folder path]/applications/api
+APP_CONTEXT=api symfony server:start --dir=[project folder path]/applications/api
+
+# start site local server
+APP_CONTEXT=site symfony proxy:domain:attach site --dir=[project folder path]/applications/site
+APP_CONTEXT=site symfony server:start --dir=[project folder path]/applications/site
+```
+
+To check if each server is running, you can go to [localhost:7080](http://localhost:7080).
+
+### Production and vhosts
+
+Set the environment variable `APP_CONTEXT` for each vhost config in your production server and development machine if preferred:
+
+    <VirtualHost admin.company.com:80>
+        # ...
+        
+        SetEnv APP_CONTEXT admin
+        
+        # ...
+    </VirtualHost>
