I am new to DigitalOcean. I am building a SaaS application locally, and would like to load it onto DO in a testing / production mode. ie it is not yet ready for public consumption Therefore I want to be able to view it in totality including the source, but have it unavailable to the public. How would I do this?
Locally I use Laravel, Linux Mint, MySql, JS.
Many Thanks !

Hi @vincej,
I can see you’ve asked a similar question here - https://www.digitalocean.com/community/questions/how-to-create-a-staging-server,
I’ve answered it however, I’ll post my answer here as well: ’
Firstly, you’ll need to create a droplet with a LAMP stack - Apache,MySql,PHP. You can use the following article to achieve that :
Once you have it, you should be able to use a program like Visual Studio Code alongside SSHFS to connect remotely to your laravel project and develop it.
