I can start the default PHP server with
php -S localhost:8000
but how to stop the server? Usually with CTRL + C yes, but if i want to do it from another terminal?

Answer
starting:
nohup php -S localhost:8000 & pid=$! echo $pid >/var/run/php.pid
stopping
pid=$(cat /var/run/php.pid) kill $pid
That’s only an example without proper error handling
