Description:
Runserver is a bundled webserver similar to whats provided with Rails and Django projects. Developers may now cd
into any Drupal codebase, run drush runserver
, and then start browsing the site. This skips all webserver and vhost configuration.
qd
is short for Quick Drupal. It clones Drupal, starts a webserver for the site, installs Drupal, and logs you in as an admin in your browser.
