Wamp

[Superted]

Just wanted to let everyone here that writes their script locally, and then uploads to x10 to test know that developing will go a lot faster if u just install wamp5 (google it).. You can then run php and mysql on your local windows machine, so developing will be a lot faster ;)

Cya,
Superted!

XAMPP is also another good one to use, for localhost development

I use WAMP since i am on Windows Vista. I prefer WAMP, more easier to use for me.

I use xamplite since i can carry my work on my pendrive and do the development activity were ever i am. I just need only a system to do it since i have the server in my pendrive itself.

XAMPP and XAMPP Lite both make for excellent development environments. You can config the crap out of it. And it's stable as anything. More stable than Windows, as hard as it is to understand. ;)

Yeah! it rocks. A very helpful software if you are in windows OS.

OK I was expecting this not to be news for a lot of people

Yeah I use XAMPP for all my programming, If I do want to upload it I normally upload the final version after all the BETA versions on my PC.

Personally I use Xampp but I only came across it by accident while I was searching for Wamp on Google although they both do the same things.
