Update "Getting Started" Page to outline PHP installation process

Open joehoyle opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

Description

Our Getting Started guide starts essentially with "Install Composer", but it doesn't even mentioned that you'll need PHP installed, or what version of PHP. In https://github.com/humanmade/altis-dev-tools-command/pull/34 we had one reported case where someone is using PHP 7.2 for example which doesn't since we switched to PHP 7.4+. It seems currently we don't acknowledge or guide people on installing PHP 7.4 which is a prerequisite to composer, which is a prerequisite to altis.

Along with mentioning that they need to have PHP installed, we would probably need to give them direction to installing PHP. Same as what we have done for composer.
