Does this only work on flywheel wpengine hosted sites.
Ive tried to follow the tutorial and import my site but its stuck on adding site.
- Missing host entry
thanx Sean
Hello @mcgav - welcome to the Local community! 
Local is available to use for any Local WordPress development, it does not have to be connected to a Flywheel or WP Engine hosted site.
That error “Missing host entry” is often associated with an antivirus setting with your computer.
I would recommend starting with this help doc to see if you can resolve this issue:
Let me know if that helps!
Sam 
thanx for your help sam . Ill post back
yeah its something to do with the hosts file. My Laptop doesnt have a host file (view hidden files). So I tried with my windows tablet (same antivirus - ESET) and it worked first time no issues…
I dont understand where the difference is??
