> Looking for an even easier way to develop Laravel applications on macOS? Check out [Laravel Herd](https://herd.laravel.com). Herd includes everything you need to get started with Laravel development, including Valet, PHP, and Composer.

[Laravel Valet](https://github.com/laravel/valet) is a development environment for macOS minimalists. Laravel Valet configures your Mac to always run [Nginx](https://www.nginx.com/) in the background when your machine starts. Then, using [DnsMasq](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dnsmasq), Valet proxies all requests on the `*.test` domain to point to sites installed on your local machine.

In other words, Valet is a blazing fast Laravel development environment that uses roughly 7 MB of RAM. Valet isn't a complete replacement for [Sail](/docs/{{version}}/sail) or [Homestead](/docs/{{version}}/homestead), but provides a great alternative if you want flexible basics, prefer extreme speed, or are working on a machine with a limited amount of RAM.
