The official Laravel Valet development environment is great if you are an Apple user and thanks to Carlos Priego you can now enjoy the same benefits you are an Ubuntu user.
Valet for Ubuntu is a port of the original made specifically for Ubuntu that attempts to mirror all the features of Valet v1 with Caddy server.
Installation is simple as well. First, make sure you are running Ubuntu >= 15.04 with at least PHP 5.6. Then, you’ll need the following dependencies and packages:
sudo apt-get install libnss3-tools jq xsel
PHP Packages (replace the * with your php version):
php*-cli php*-common php*-curl php*-json php*-mbstring php*-mcrypt php*-opcache php*-readline php*-xml php*-zip
Finally, require the package and run the install:
composer global require cpriego/valet-ubuntu
valet install
After that, you’ll get all the Valet features including park, link, and status.
