It's 2017, please stop recommending people run any development environments on their host OS. Vagrant exists, you should use it.

After setting up your environment in Vagrant learn to take snapshots of the images, or better yet use SaltStack, Ansible, Bash, or some other tool for installing all the requirements and configuring the VM automatically, and you're a long way into having a reasonable development environment and deployment strategy.
