Learn to set up and manage local Drupal development environments in this 48-minute tutorial that demonstrates the comprehensive capabilities of DDEV, a Docker-based open source tool. Master essential skills starting from scratch, with no prior DDEV or Docker knowledge required. Explore how to configure Drupal environments, handle database operations through imports and exports, manage file systems, and execute Drush commands for site administration. Discover built-in web interfaces for database management and email testing, implement XDebug for both PHPStorm and VSCode debugging workflows, optimize performance through XHProf profiling, and synchronize project updates across different hosting providers. Gain hands-on experience with the same development tool officially adopted by TYPO3 and Craft CMS, and currently under consideration by Drupal as their official local development solution.
