Here are some of my notes on getting web development tools set up on a brand new Mac machine.

Installing Homebrew, Rails, and MySQL:

Installing apache:

It’s already installed, actually. System Preferences > Sharing > Web Sharing.

Installing phpmyadmin:

Go download it from the official site. Untar it. Drag it to the Computer Website Folder (/Library/WebServer/Documents)

Configure apache with php module:

vi /etc/apache2/httpd.conf

Uncomment php module:

LoadModule php5_module libexec/apache2/libphp5.so
