XAMPP is a cross-platform build that contains Apache web server, MySQL, PHP script interpreter, Perl server programming language and a large number of additional libraries and utilities that allow you to quickly run a full-fledged and working web server on a Windows computer.

In the complete set there are the examples written in languages Perl and PHP. On their example we can look at and study the functionality and all the advantages of these programming languages. This version of XAMPP is portable and does not require installation and works from any removable media.

XAMPP for Windows (Portable) allows for quick establishment of a full web server without installation.

It is worth noting that XAMPP contains a full-fledged FTP server and the phpMyAdmin utility and a huge number of other useful programs. This build, of course, will please all users of the HTTP-server Apache, but in turn it will be convenient and all novice users, as the deployment of a full-fledged web-server with XAMPP takes a minimum of time and does not require in-depth knowledge. It supports all 32-bit Microsoft operating systems starting with Windows 95, as well as Linux, MacOS X and Solaris.

In addition to the fact that the portable version of XAMPP server building greatly simplifies the work of the system administrator, it is necessary to mention another undoubted advantage - complete free of charge.

A valuable tool to own! I've used it to launch small business websites for a few years now. What's not to love? An all in one website and server. It's easy to install, easily test your coding before you launch, add ons for ecommerce projects, get everything just the way you want it. I've never had any issues using this. It's good for small to medium sites I would say but for those things it works perfect. Great design, great UI, and best of all it's portable. I personally highly recommend it.
