Using our sub $100 Linux development server running on a VirtualBox install, we can create virtual hosts for our development domains. We can use Rover's Virtual Host Manager bash script to accomplish this with only a few lines of code.
After you install the bash script you can literally create a new Wordpress website on your development server in less than 2 minutes. Follow along as I walk through installing and using the script to build a fully functional website. I even time myself...with all of my talking I was still able to do it in under 2 minutes and 30 seconds.
