IXP Manager is a standard PHP application that uses MySQL and a web 
server (or even the built in PHP web server for development). Setting up 
a local development platform for a PHP application a common task and 
there's plenty of information out there which can be found via Google.

We do have existing documentation and tools (and also some links):


1. we have a Docker compose for local development - please see:

https://docs.ixpmanager.org/dev/docker/


2. we have a Vagrant environment also:

https://docs.ixpmanager.org/dev/vagrant/

3. personally, I use Valet for my local development:

https://laravel.com/docs/5.6/valet

with MySQL and PHP provided via https://brew.sh/.

This works brilliantly and for multiple apps.
