Bug description

I'm running https://roots.io/radicle/ which really running laravel for wordpress.

When I goto https://radicle.test I get a 404 Site not found

The main issue here, I believe, is I have no way to configure the local development setup to set the public/ directory as the webroot

I've done all of this.

1. In bud.config.js: Replace http://radicle.test with your local dev server URL
2. Run yarn && yarn build
3. Run composer install
4. Configure your local development setup to set the public/ directory as the webroot.
5. Copy .env.example to .env and update the environment variables

Steps to reproduce

I was able to create a herd.yml file. It's not clear how to configure the public/ directory as webroot.

You would need to create a custom local "Driver" in order for Herd to know how to load your project.

You can learn more about this in the docs section: https://herd.laravel.com/docs/macos/extending-herd/custom-drivers#custom-laravel-driver-example
