Installing a Local Web Server

If you do not have access to a web server, it is easy to install a local web server:

• Download and install the free and opensource Apache XAMPP web server

• Use the xampp start script to start the web server.

• The htdocs directory of the web server is the root of your local website.

• To access your local web server, just type localhost in the address bar of your web browser and press enter.
