    # Apache, PHP with homebrew
    I posted several talks about compiling PHP from source, but everyone was trying to convince me that a package manager like [Homebrew](https://brew.sh) was a more convenient way to install.

    The purpose of [Homebrew](https://brew.sh) is simple: a package manager for macOS that will allow you to set up and install common packages easily and allows you to update frequently using simple commands.

    I used a clean installation of [macOS Sierra](https://www.apple.com/macos/sierra/) to ensure all steps could be recorded and tested. In most cases you already have done work on your Mac, so chances are you can skip a few steps in this tutorial.

    # Apache and PHP with homebrew

    I’ve made this according to the installation instructions given on [GetGrav](https://getgrav.org/blog/macos-sierra-apache-multiple-php-versions).

    ## The installation procedures

    Install Xcode command line tools
    These installation procedures will set up your [macOS Sierra](https://www.apple.com/macos/sierra/) with PHP 7.1 and Apache 2.4.

    We assume you had PHP 7.0 installed
