I'm looking to get into Xenforo and WordPress development. Everything I have read says that PHPStorm and MAMP Pro tools are the best. Can someone either confirm or deny, please? If it is not the best environment, what should I use instead?

I appreciate your help.

But for our web dev environment we tend to use something similar to what we documented in our development documentation:

 
I personally use Laravel Valet for WordPress sites, I find it less awkward to use than MAMP Pro.
