Setup local development environment with Homestead

Download & Install Vagrant and Virtualbox

Install hostname plugin for Vagrant, run command vagrant plugin install vagrant-hostmanager

Run php vender/bin/homestead make to generate your Homestead.yaml

You need an ssh keypair, Homestead defaults to "id_rsa", but you can configure a different pair in the project Homestead.yaml. To generate a new key pair see this reference - https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Git-on-the-Server-Generating-Your-SSH-Public-Key

Once everything is set up you can visit the project via http://homestead.test in the browser
