Laravel Valet Lite

Published on October 6th, 2020 by Paul Redmond

David Hemphill is working on Valet Lite, dubbed as “the easiest local development platform for macOS.” It touts a GUI for managing local development servers with all the dependencies built-in. No more managing Homebrew and multiple PHP versions on your Mac.

Its main features at launch (more on that in a second) will include:

No need for Homebrew (Valet Lite handles the webserver and PHP for you)
Serves Laravel and WordPress projects
Comes with multiple PHP versions bundled
Intelligently handles choosing ports for your servers
Serves all sites with SSL by default
Automatically serves your sites at .test domains
Supports Dark Mode (of course!)

Valet Lite isn’t quite available yet, but if you’d like to get the most up-to-date info and a beta invite, sign up for the Valet Lite Beta Insiders newsletter. I know I’m excited to see what David has in store for Laravel and PHP developers!
