ddevlisted
DDEV local development environment for Craft CMS projects. ALWAYS load this skill when running any ddev command, configuring .ddev/config.yaml, or troubleshooting local container issues. Covers: config.yaml settings (project type, PHP/Node versions, database, docroot), shorthand commands (ddev composer, ddev craft, ddev npm), add-ons (ddev add-on get for Redis, Mailpit), custom commands (.ddev/commands/), Vite dev server exposure (web_extra_exposed_ports, web_extra_daemons), database import/export (ddev import-db, ddev export-db, ddev craft db/backup), Xdebug toggling (ddev xdebug on/off), sharing local sites (ddev share, temporary public URLs), and troubleshooting (ddev poweroff, ddev logs, ddev describe, ddev delete, port conflicts, container restart issues). Triggers on: ddev start/stop/restart, ddev craft, ddev composer, ddev npm, ddev ssh, ddev import-db, ddev export-db, ddev xdebug, ddev share, ddev add-on, ddev poweroff, ddev describe, ddev logs, .ddev/config.yaml, web_extra_exposed_ports, web_extra_da

# DDEV for Craft CMS Development
## Companion Skills — Always Load Together
When this skill triggers, also load:
- **`craftcms`** — Plugin/module development. Required when DDEV commands involve Craft CLI (`ddev craft make`, `ddev craft migrate`, `ddev craft project-config`).
- **`craft-php-guidelines`** — PHP coding standards. Required when DDEV commands involve code quality tooling (`ddev composer check-cs`, `ddev composer phpstan`, `ddev craft pest/test`).

When unsure about a DDEV feature, `WebFetch` the relevant docs page.
## Common Pitfalls
- Using `ddev exec composer install` instead of `ddev composer install` — DDEV shorthand commands handle path resolution and environment setup. Always use the shorthand.
- Forgetting `ddev craft up` does both `migrate/all` and `project-config/apply` — no need to run them separately after pulls or deploys.
- Exposing the Vite dev server with `ports` instead of `web_extra_exposed_ports` — `ports` causes conflicts when running multiple DDEV projec
