Installation
Installing espresso
Start out by either cloning or downloading the espresso repository to a location where you'd like to house and run it on your local machine.
cd into the www directory within your terminal. Once here, simply run composer install to install the required dependencies.
Notice
espresso requires sudo to properly run and perform the task of creating virtual hosts on your local machine. Normally this is frowned upon but in this case there's no easy means to ask for temporary sudo as espresso is built off of web technologies. The code is also completely open source, so you have complete knowledge of the type of tasks it performs with sudo privilidges.
To run espresso, simply run the following command in your terminal from the root of your espresso folder:
sudo ./espresso
