Hi love Local !

… but I miss the ability to test updates for outdated client’s websites.
Sometimes servers doesn’t have the last PHP version and we cannot anticipate an possible incompatibility.

I would love to install custom PHP & DB versions.
Now for exemple I want to try PHP 7.0.33 and MySQL 5.6.50 but I cannot.
Maybe let us just upload manually a custom version ?

I saw a lot of people interested by that feature :
@rowatt : Support more PHP versions, and Installing different PHP versions
@mrtorbert : Additional PHP versions
@Heliotropen : Mysql & php versions supported
@japiera : Install additional PHP versions
@amanuensis : PHP and MYSQL version installs

Make Local even more Amazing ! :heart:

Yes please. It’s silly that this isn’t even an option, and it’s hindering our workflow.
