Hello, I'm preparing to set up Local for Wordpress on my MacOS Monterey. You mentioned it usually installs Apache along with other components, but since you already have Apache preinstalled, could that cause an issue? If so, can I adjust the installation process to avoid it? Or is it safe to proceed without worrying about it?

It's interesting, I've seen something similar before. Thanks for asking. To clarify, it's similar to setting up a self-contained web server to host WordPress. However, there isn't any documentation indicating either approach. You might want to test it in a VM on Windows or Linux to observe the behavior. Alternatively, back up your Apache setup and run the installer to check the outcome. I can't assist much further beyond that.

It seems everything is working as expected. The system relies on NGINX by default, which is fine.
