XAMPP-VM Mac OS Mojave wordpress debugging using XDebug

After days of struggle to enable debugging, I switched to MAMP free version which was a cakewalk.

For Step by step guide please follow this blog by Josh Buchea. Has a detailed walkthrough.

Hope this helps someone stuck on Mac with Xampp-VM like i did. Switch to MAMP free version. Happy coding WordPress PHP
