• XAMPP is an abbreviation for cross-platform, Apache, MySQL, PHP

and Perl,
• it allows you to build WordPress site offline, on a local web server on your
computer

• This simple and lightweight solution works on Windows, Linux, and Mac
– hence the “cross-platform” is used for XAMPP

• Since WordPress isn’t a stand-alone application, XAMPP provides two


essential components for its installation – Apache, which is used to
create the local server, and MySQL which you can use as a database for
your website
• A domain is the name of a website, a URL is how to find a website,
and a website is what people see and interact with when they get there

• when you buy a domain, you have purchased the name for your site,
but you still need to build the site
• Why and how developers are using WordPress local server.
• It allows them to create a local copy of the site in which they can try out new
plugin updates before implementing them on its live version

• This way they can prevent and spot potential errors and issues that
might occur

• Let us learn how to locally host a website on Windows, Mac, or Linux.
