Editorial interest 78/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

RAMP is a free macOS app for running a local PHP development stack, with versioned PHP-FPM, Apache, MySQL, Redis and related tools.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-27 issue.

For: Mac developers maintaining local PHP projects
Worth noticing: Its MAMP PRO importer brings over vhosts, aliases, PHP versions and MySQL data; the homepage says it leaves MAMP PRO’s files untouched.

Field notes

The app groups vhosts and lets each host specify a domain, aliases, document root and PHP version. Its service list also includes Redis and optional Elasticsearch, which the page says does not start automatically and can be set to stop after a chosen time. The site describes rollback for service updates and a clean uninstall; database removal can include an optional dump to the Desktop first.
