MAMP

Yes, MAMP is my most recent installation on the Mac OS

As many would probably agree, from time to time, it’s useful to try or run a script without logging into a “formal” server.  Being able to write a PHP script which interacts with a MySQL database is also handy.  Anyway, the real reason to install MAMP is because I’ll need to run a couple of applications that require an Apache server.  It was also happy to see a quick tutorial about a local (test) installation of Drupal using MAMP.  In fact, in the long term we’re planning to use Drupal to provide a robust front-end interface to digital collections physically stored in DSpace.   Who knows, this may be just the starting point!

After all, the University Libraries is already using Drupal for its website!

BTW: here is the direct link to download MAMP
