```sh
php -S localhost:port
```
#### Using Apache/XAMPP
_have `PHP` and `PDO` with SQLite support installed_
```sh
git clone https://github.com/actuallyaridan/chirp
mv chirp /var/www/
# Or other place your Apache or XAMPP install uses for hosting coontent
```
**BTW that folder should be empty - if it's something like `/htdocs/chirp` it will 99% break**
