This is seriously so fantastic. In my case, the biggest barrier to me contributing to projects that use PHP is the pain of setting up Apache/nginx, making sure permissions are right on the directory for apache to serve it, setting up virtual hosts, etc. This built-in web server has singlehandedly influenced me to actually look at using PHP for projects.

sudo apt-get install nginx php5-common php5-fpm is all you have to do :\

  Haha, I knew someone would tell me "but it's easy to set up nginx and PHP!!!" I really don't agree. "php -S localhost:8888" is much, much easier. Let's leave it at that.
