MAMP IT UP: A Guide to Installing WordPress On Your Mac Kindle Edition

You know how there are some things you need to do once, and the second time it's simple? But the first time, it's bang your head on the wall frustrating? That's how MAMP is. And this book does a nice walk-through to save you the frustration. For the $5 Kindle version, I saved ten times that in time and headache. Well written, clear instructions, and you're up and running, testing your WordPress site on your Mac.

Awhile back I read WAMP It UP! by Arelthia Phillips. As a Mac user, I was reading through it because I work with and instruct many PC users. WAMP It Up was a great learning tool and I submitted my request for the Mac version of this process. The next thing I know, Arelthia published this book, MAMP It Up!I purchased MAMP It Up! as soon as it was released but I had put off developing locally because I had thought it was not something I would use and because I thought it would be difficult to maintain. Neither is true and now I FINALLY have both a live and a local environment that I can take advantage of for any of my website development needs.I am so thankful to have had access to the book while setting up my MAMP. As was the other book, MAMP It Up! is truly a real step by step guide. It has lots of images to confirm where you are in the process and to ensure you're doing it right. Most importantly, it is written in a light, easy to follow and understand format.Thanks Arelthia!

Arelthia Phillips spells it out very clearly and gives step by step info on how to set up local host using MAMP & WAMP!

Sorry, not up to date, for older MAMP.

great

Well done Arelthia ... short and sweet ... lots of screen captures ... love the "recipe-approach" style!
