1. Install PHP (v5.6.4)
   • See steps for windows || mac os
2. Install NodeJS (v6.9.4+)
   • Switch Node Package Manager (NPM) to the correct directory npm config set prefix /usr/local
   • If you need a different version of NodeJS for another project, you can use a tool like N or NVM to manage multiple versions.
