git clone https://github.com/mauricecalhoun/tools.git
./tools/install
- SSH public key (for authenticating with services like Github and Heroku)
- Homebrew (for managing operating system libraries)
- Git

It should take about 30 minutes for everything to install, depending on your machine.
- MySQL
- Apache
- Enabling PHP in Apache

- Apps
The installer doesn't do these things because it's a) Already installed in MacOSX by default or b) It needs admin rights.
Find this line in /etc/apache2/httpd.conf starting with:
LoadModule php5_module /some/path
And replace the path with: # PHP 5.6 LoadModule php5_module /usr/local/opt/php54/libexec/apache2/libphp5.so
Add this line to the bottom of the file:
Include /private/etc/apache2/extra/httpd-vhosts.conf
