The perfect environment for your WordPress projects
With MAMP PRO, you can set up local WordPress sites in seconds – perfect if you want to design, develop, or test themes, plugins, or entire websites. One click is all it takes to create a complete WordPress installation with a database. Thanks to the snapshot feature, HTTPS support, and custom hostnames, MAMP PRO becomes your ideal playground for WordPress development.
- Create custom WordPress environments as Blueprints
- Start a fully configured setup with a single click

Unlimited Number of Sites
Develop any number of websites and customize them individually with MAMP PRO. Tailor each website exactly to the respective target system.
Choose between Apache or Nginx as the web server, set the appropriate PHP version, and decide whether and which caching system should be used.
This way, you can work on multiple projects simultaneously without losing track.
- Create an unlimited number of local websites in one environment
- Configure a unique hostname and domain for each project
- Keep projects cleanly separated for clarity and to avoid conflicts
- Work on multiple client or test projects in parallel without limitations
Snapshots
Save the current state of your project at any time with a snapshot and restore it when needed – including the database. This gives you a complete backup during development.
Test new features without risking your current progress – snapshots are the perfect solution for that.
Unlike Git, snapshots don’t just back up your files; they also include all the contents, settings, and structures of your database – ideal for database-driven projects like WordPress or e-commerce systems.
- Save a secure project state before making risky changes
- Test new features or updates without endangering the current state
- Switch between different project variants for A/B testing
- Increased safety and flexibility throughout the development process
Laravel Support
Quickly set up a new site with Laravel pre-installed and ready to use. No need for manual configuration – just start building your application using one of the most popular PHP frameworks. Ideal for developers who want to take full advantage of Laravel’s elegant syntax and powerful toolset from the very beginning.

Blueprints
Save valuable time when creating new websites with Blueprints. Set up and configure a website once – including all plugins, themes, and settings – and save it as a Blueprint. Use this Blueprint as the perfect starting point for future projects. This allows you to quickly build new websites on proven structures without having to configure everything from scratch.
- Create complex setups – e.g., WordPress with WooCommerce and demo content – as a Blueprint and reproduce them anytime
- Save files and database as a consistent starting point
- Launch new projects with a single click and start working immediately

The deployment feature simplifies the entire process and ensures seamless transfer. This makes it easy to handle database and file transfers quickly and effortlessly.
Show your clients the current state of a website with ease. Put the website online with minimal effort, and your client can directly follow the development via a link.

- Duplicate existing projects 1:1 – including files and database
- Quickly create variants or staging versions
- Consistent starting point for A/B tests or redesigns
- Save time by eliminating manual copy and import steps
Multi PHP
Assign each of your websites its own PHP version, allowing you to test your projects with different PHP versions without needing to restart the server. You can choose from a wide range of PHP versions, from PHP 7.x to PHP 8.x, and switch between them flexibly. This ensures that your website runs smoothly in the required environment.
