Step 1: Install WordPress using the Bitnami WordPress OS X VM
#Os x database apps mac os x#
NOTE: This tutorial uses a Mac OS X VM, but Bitnami native installers are also available for Windows and Linux. The next sections will walk you through these steps in detail.
This means that there are no additional libraries, databases, and runtimes to download, and, once installed, the new application or development environment will not interfere with other software on your system. Each VM contains all of the software necessary to run it out of the box. For OS X users, Bitnami provides pre-packaged virtual machines (VMs) for automated setup of popular server software. Needless to say, there’s a better way: a Bitnami OS X VM. There are files to download and copy, configuration settings to be adjusted, and various other hoops to jump through before you can actually get some productive work in. If you’ve ever tried installing a server application (like WordPress) or a development environment (like an Apache/PHP/MySQL environment), you already know that it’s a lot harder than it seems at first glance.
