Apache, PHP and MariaDB for Windows. No installation.
Unzip, double-click UwAmp.exe: your local web server is ready. Several PHP versions side by side, phpMyAdmin included, everything in one folder.
UwAmp
Everything you need for PHP development, nothing more
A single 2 MB executable drives your servers. No installer, no Windows service, no runtime: you stay in control of your environment.
Portable
Everything lives in the UwAmp folder: on your drive, on a USB stick, in a synced folder. To uninstall, delete the folder.
Several versions
Install several versions of PHP, Apache and MariaDB / MySQL side by side and switch between them in one click.
Official sources
Components are downloaded from windows.php.net, Apache Lounge, MariaDB and phpMyAdmin, over HTTPS, with SHA-256 checks.
One-click sites
Create http://mysite.localhost/ in one click, without touching the hosts file. Virtual hosts, aliases and local HTTPS are set in the interface.
Settings without files
PHP extensions, OPcache, Xdebug, upload limits, ports, MySQL password: tick a box, it is applied. Files remain editable by hand.
Always up to date
UwAmp tells you when a new version is out and updates itself. Your sites, databases and settings stay where they are.
