The following is how I set up a new project. The steps are for linux,
but the same logic was applicable on windows when I last checked.

First, edit /etc/hosts (IIRC it's somewhere under c:\windows with the
same name) to add a new domain:

    127.0.0.1 projectname.local

Edit httpd.conf to add a new virtual host:

<VirtualHost *:80>
      ServerName projectname.local
      DocumentRoot "/var/www/projectname/web"
      <Directory "/var/www/projectname/web">
        AllowOverride all
      </Directory>
    </VirtualHost>

Notice the lack of the /sf alias - I prefer to use
plugin:publish-assets to create a symlink.

After all this, restart apache and point your browser to
http://projectname.local. It's a lot easier to remember than localhost
and some obscure port for every project.
