Thank you, Brian. I appreciate the unbiased review of this new tool. As you said, this seems to be for someone who is mostly wanting to create a personal site for maybe a blog. I'll stick with Local.
Agreed - if you're doing any dev work, Local or wp/env is the way to go.
Thanks for your video!
Thanks, Brian. It's also important to note that, at the moment, Studio is Mac only.
Yep good point. The Windows version is already in beta, I think, so it shouldn't be too far off. Linux? Don't see it happening any time soon.
Great summary 👍
Hi Bryan, thanks for sharing. I have one question: I don't see the option in Studio to view the database like Local does.
Yeah I don't believe that Studio exposes any sort of GUI to browse the database. I'm wondering if you could determine the credentials and use a tool like Tableplus to browse it 🤔?
@@BrianCoords Thanks😁
I know its not exactly to WordPress, but what about "Valet / Herd", for me is the local eviroment i use to anything related to web development, easy to install, (Mac / Win / Linux) almost no GUI, and you can make every site use any version of PHP / Node (or whatever) multiple kind of database / cache etc, to mirror your Production Site.
I think is the way, but i really wanna know your opinion
I think in my first (deleted) draft of this video I mentioned Herd which is another great example of just a super lean tool to run PHP. I use Herd (plus DBngin) for Laravel and typically use Docker for WordPress, but I think one of my coworkers has been successfully using Herd for WordPress recently.
@BrianCoords Herd/Valet has drivers for most of the big PHP "apps."
It's basically like a pseudo-docker, without using Docker (I don't really know the technical term, lol).
So, you can run different PHP and database setups in a directory with automatic domain and SSL-it's really nice. (I never really understood Docker, but that's my fault, I know.)
You can use wp-cli or download a zip to install WordPress in a directory, and you're good to go with a .test domain.
A long time ago, I had a problem with "local," and I lost a client's website (nothing fancy, but it was important). After that, I was looking for something more lightweight, with minimal memory consumption, etc. (Also, for me, opening an app just to open an environment feels a little redundant.)
So, thanks for your answer!
Laravel Herd is a great development environment not only for Laravel but also for Wordpress.
Thanks for the video. Currently Studio does not appear to support WordPress multisite networks either, whereas LocalWP does. I agree, I don't think LocalWP will be going anywhere-- It is a fantastic tool. That said, Studio does provide a nice installable UI wrapper for playground, which is great for spinning up a simple site for testing or troubleshooting.
There's a new update coming to multisite that will allow unique ports (8888, 8889, etc). Once that's in core I believe Studio will be able to support a multisite install.
But overall I agree 100% - Local for real development work, Studio for simple sites to play around with things.
