If you are a web developer then you would want setup local web server for productive development. But setting up a local web server, with PHP and MySQL, is a pain since it requires a lot of configuration and testing to make it work correctly.
Well! XAMPP is here to save the day. XAMPP is a web server which comes pre-configured with Apache HTTP Server, MySQL, PHP, Perl, SQLite and much more. Just download the XAMPP Windows installer, run the installer and after installation is complete - start developing. As simple as that.
