Website Kickstarter for Herbie CMS
==================================

[](#website-kickstarter-for-herbie-cms)

With the Kickstarter, you can create a new website in no time, install all dependencies and launch the website in your development environment.

Supported PHP Versions
----------------------

[](#supported-phpversions)

8.0 / 8.1 / 8.2 / 8.3

Launch Website Using PHP and Composer
-------------------------------------

[](#launch-website-using-php-and-composer)

Create project and install dependencies.

```
composer create-project getherbie/start-website mywebsite

```

Go to the `web` directory and start PHPs built-in web server.

```
cd mywebsite/web
php -S localhost:8888 index.php

```

Open  with your browser.

If you need additional console output or logging information, set the debug environment variable.

```
HERBIE_DEBUG=1 php -S localhost:8888 index.php

```

If you want to debug using Xdebug (3.x), start the web server as follows.

```
XDEBUG_MODE=debug php -S localhost:8888 index.php

For this to work, Xdebug must of course be installed.
