Git HTML 5 demo on OSX

I am very new to Web development and wanted to run one of the Github project (https://github.com/remy/html5demos) on my Mac.

I have downloaded the project on my Mac and puzzled ho开发者_Python百科w to run it. Need help from all talented people across Stackoverflow.

The demo using php. Unfortunately, the apache installed on OSX (assuming you're on Snow Leopard) has not have php enabled by default and you need some admin-editing to enable it.

So, first move the unpacked folder remy_something into /Library/WebServer/Documents and rename it to easy name, for example "remy". (The final path /Library/WebServer/Documents/remy)

enable Web sharing in System preferences

point your browser to http://localhost/remy/index.php

if you get an rendered page - you're done, and can start playing...
if you get an error - something is terrible ;(
if you get a page where is the 1st line <?php - you're on good way - you need enable php.

For enabling php in OSX's apache, you should read for example: http://www.perfectline.ee/blog/how-to-setup-apache-and-php-on-mac-os-x-snow-leopard or any other guide you can find.

after enabling php and restarting apache (disable/enable Web sharing), you can check again the page...
