Laravel Herd

Herd is a blazing fast, native Laravel and PHP development environment for macOS. It provides everything that you need to get started with Laravel development. It ships with PHP, nginx, dnsmasq and Node.js.

You can integrate Herd with Laravel Forge and use a single tool from setting up your site locally to deploying it on a remote server.

Herd Pro completes your development environment with service management for databases, caches, and more. It comes with testing and debugging tools tailored to Laravel and you'll love them when you're working on web applications every day.

After installing Herd, it serves all sites on your machine via *.test domains – it's like Laravel Valet but has no dependencies and doesn't need Homebrew. It ships with its own, pre-compiled binaries which makes it blazing fast to install and use.
