Installation

Composer

The easiest way to install Herbie is through Composer. Run the following commands in your terminal to create a new project and install all dependent libraries.

composer create-project getherbie/start-website mywebsite

Change to the mywebsite/web directory:

cd mywebsite/web

Start the internal webserver:

php -S localhost:8888 index.php

Now open http://localhost:8888 with your browser. You should see your first Herbie website.

Development Environment

If you need a development environment, you can follow these steps.

Clone the GitHub repository.

git clone https://github.com/getherbie/herbie.git

Change to the herbie directory.

cd herbie

Install Composer dependencies.

composer install

Change to the website/web directory.

cd website/web/

Start PHP's internal web server.

php -S localhost:9999 index.php

Now, open localhost:9999 with your favorite web browser.

If you want to have additional console output or logging information, set the debug environment variable.

HERBIE_DEBUG=1 php -S localhost:9999 index.php

If you want to use Xdebug (3.x), start the internal web server as follows. Hint: For this to work, Xdebug must of course be installed.
