I Just purchased a new MacBook after my old Ibook finally died. After getting all my basic software installed I needed to install my stack (Apache web server, PHP, FTP server etc) for development. While you can download and install everything piece by piece, the easiest way is to download a bundle. I used <a href=”http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html”>XMAPP<.</a>
The install is even simpler than the directions they give
1)Download and uncompress the newest version
2)Open Applications>Xampp Control Panel
3) Click “Start all components”… Youre up and running.
4) Open your web browser and go to “http://localhost/” where you will have easy access to many of the functions!
