Setting Up a Local Server With MAMP

When I started using MAMP, I knew right away that I didn’t want to store my site files in the default location, as shown below:

I have created a directory called “Sites” and have populated it with source files. I will now direct my the apache server to my “Sites” Directory and then set the Start / Stop to open that directory whenever MAMP is launched.

After starting the servers, you will be able to see the list of  projects that you have stored within your “Sites” folder.
