16,594 PointsTrying to install composer, I don't know what to do with:Choose the command-line PHP you want to use:
I recognize the words, I have been using the command prompt in Python, I have Mamp installed and I have used it. That being said...I'm clueless as to what to do. I tried looking it up, but I couldn't find what I was supposed to look for. I found this:
- if you are using xampp . see it under /xampp/php/php.exe . If are you using wampp it will be under /wamp/bin/php../php.exe – Bikash
- I looked in Mamp, but I didn't see anything like those things

Treehouse TeacherJohn Larson have you tried following the installation guides?

You don't really need to worry about MAMP, as composer runs separately.
