When I set up a new WordPress install, I find it a whole lot easier to work on themes and try out new plug-ins while it’s on my Mac than uploading and running it on the live server. I use MAMP PRO to run PHP on my Mac, so it’s easy to install WordPress and test.
Check out my new tutorial on Macinstruct to see how you can be up and running with MAMP and WordPress on your Mac in just a few minutes.
