• WordPress next, and beyond: breaking the technical enclosure

  Yeah -- though I think VVV has been thoroughly supplanted by Local: https://localwp.com Which almost every serious WP developer I know uses.

• Laragon Exception: "The service cannot be started..." after enabling SSL

  For development purposes I use Laragon which usually spares you the hassle of manually setting up SQL and Apache. However, on my new desktop I ran into an issue when I tried to enable SSL for Apache: Oh no, Laragon detected exceptions! The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it After showing the message Laragon just closes. On the other...
