Install PHP 7.4 using Homebrew via `brew install valet-php@7.4`. 4. Install Composer using Homebrew via `brew install composer`. 5. Install Valet+ with Composer via `composer global require marcofaul/valet-plus-reforged`. 6. Add `export PATH="$PATH:$HOME/.composer/vendor/bin"` to `.bash_profile` (for bash) or `.zshrc` (for zsh) depending on your shell (`echo $SHELL`) 7. Run the `valet fix` command. This will check for common issues preventing Valet+ from installing. 8. Run the `valet install` command. Optionally add `--with-mariadb` to use MariaDB instead of MySQL This will configure and install Valet+ and DnsMasq, and register Valet's daemon to launch when your system starts. 9. Once Valet+ is installed, try pinging (or just visit any `*.test` domain on your terminal using a command such as `ping -c1 foobar.test`.
