This relies on MAMP, which provides the required environment.

1. Install MAMP and run it.
2. Go to ‘Preferences‘, open the ‘Apache’ tab and set ‘Document Root’ to /Users/<YOUR USER NAME>/Sites, so your Sites directory will be used as Apache root.
3. Download ownCloud
4. Extract it

    unzip owncloud-latest.zip -d ~/Sites/

5. Now you can set it up by going to http://localhost:8888/owncloud
