Tag: XAMPP

XAMPP is an open source software that provides users with an out-of-the-box server experience. It is a complex, yet very easy-to-use AMPP (Apache, MySQL, PHP and Perl) distribution that’s compatible with the Linux, Microsoft Windows and Mac OS X operating systems. The best tool for those who want to install a fully functional web development environment.

This article assumes you have at least basic knowledge of Linux, know how to use the shell, and most importantly, you host your site on your own VPS. The installation is quite simple and assumes you are running in the root account, if not you may need to add ‘sudo’ to the commands to get root privileges. I will show you through the step by step installation XAMPP stack on a Ubuntu 18.04 (Bionic Beaver) server.

Features XAMPP:

• Regularly updated to the latest versions of Apache, MariaDB, PHP and Perl.
• Supports other modules like OpenSSL, phpMyAdmin, MediaWiki, Joomla, WordPress etc.,
• Tests the website designers and programmers work without Internet.
  Secured package.
• Allows creation and manipulation of databases in MariaDB and SQLite.
