How do I run Laravel Herd on a Mac?
Laravel Herd is a native macOS PHP development environment — bundled nginx + PHP (multiple versions) + dnsmasq serving every folder as a *.test site, zero configuration. The modern MAMP/Valet successor for Laravel/PHP work. Note: it runs its own nginx on port 80, so park Apache (or move its ports) while Herd is active; this app's MAMP-style import can bring Herd-hosted sites onto Apache later.
