Run Magento Locally with FlyEnv
Magento projects typically combine PHP, a database, search, cache, and a web server. FlyEnv helps manage that version-sensitive local stack around the Magento project.
Local project stack
Services FlyEnv can manage around Magento

About Magento
Magento Open Source is an open-source e-commerce platform for online stores and commerce applications.
Project resources
For installation commands, supported versions, and project-specific configuration, refer to the official Magento documentation.
Typical local stack
The exact services depend on the project, its release, and its local configuration. This is a common local setup, not a fixed requirement.
- PHP
- Composer
- MySQL / MariaDB
- OpenSearch / Elasticsearch
- Redis
- Nginx / Apache
| Component | Typical role |
|---|---|
| PHP | Runs the Magento application. |
| Composer | Installs Magento and PHP dependencies. |
| MySQL / MariaDB | Stores store and catalog data. |
| OpenSearch / Elasticsearch | Supports catalog search depending on the Magento release. |
| Redis | May support cache and sessions. |
| Nginx / Apache | Serves the local store. |
How FlyEnv helps
Match versioned PHP support
Keep the PHP runtime aligned with the Magento release.
Run the store database
Manage MySQL or MariaDB next to the application.
Coordinate search services
Use the search service supported by the specific Magento release.
Keep cache close by
Start Redis with the project when the configuration uses it.

Project installation stays with the upstream documentation. FlyEnv manages the runtimes, databases, web servers, and supporting services around it.
