DBngin VS valet-plus

Check out DBngin or StackBricks.

Home page: https://dbngin.com/

My option of choice is DBngin. It is a simple tool which lets you add databases quickly for whatever you need including MySQL, Postgres, and even Redis.

Laravel Valet + PHP Monitor + DBngin

DBngin provides a free, all-in-one database management tool that includes MySQL, PostgreSQL, and Redis. After DBngin has been installed, you can connect to your database at 127.0.0.1 using the root username and an empty string for the password.

DBNgin is a great tool for spinning up a DB (MySQL/Postgres/Redis)

Ok I see what you mean, yeah that's a pain. You could turn off MySQL in MAMP and run a separate DB app such as DBngin (https://dbngin.com/), which makes it easier to start/stop different DB's but only offers different versions of MySQL, not MariaDB.

Laravel has a built in server which leverages local PHP. I use that combined with https://dbngin.com/ for MySQL + Redis. Then frontend is ran with local node (via https://volta.sh/, also very quick)

Hi, I'm trying to install Valet+ on macOS BigSur. I installed Homebrew successfully and the followed the install documentation: https://github.com/weprovide/valet-plus/wiki/Installation

Valet Plus is what I use https://github.com/weprovide/valet-plus

I began to use Valet Plus when I switch my MacBook and I had to avoid using Docker during the Magento 2 development, I didn't know in the beginning that Valet Plus is a fork of Valet from Laravel and that the main differences are between them, so I added them in this article to let you know too.

This. We use docker (would recommend docksal over ddev but they have essentially the same features) on Mac on large projects and it runs fine. If yr just running a single project https://github.com/weprovide/valet-plus/ is worth testing out.
