takeout VS DBngin

Tighten Takeout) for small supporting container (Meilisearch/Redis)

Takeout

I was (and still am) a big docker fan but got tired of waiting for a proper build that is not slow af on macOs. I still use it a lot though as it is useful for some specific cases. There's also takeout (https://github.com/tighten/takeout) to make it simpler to manage docker containers.

To be honest, Tent is not an original idea. In fact it's inspired directly from another tool called Takeout by Tighten Co. which is written in PHP and uses Docker as its back-end.

Check out DBngin or StackBricks.

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)
