I built a minimal TUI/GUI PHP version manager for Linux so I could stop typing `update-alternatives`

I got tired of manually juggling update-alternatives between my different side projects. I know Docker exists, but I wanted a native nvm like experience for my personal PHP projects.

So, I built phpvm to scratch my own itch. Would love your feedback!

What it does:

  • Auto-switches: Reads .php-version or composer.json and changes your PHP version when you cd into a directory.
  • TUI: Type phpvm for a fast, interactive terminal menu.
  • GUI: A system tray icon to check xdebug status and instantly restart FPM.
