XAMPP turns your PC into a test server. You can build and break things locally before anything touches your live site, and you don't need internet to work.
What you can do with it
- Run PHP sites on Windows, Mac or Linux
- Test updates and new features before going live
- Learn PHP and MySQL without paying for hosting
Good to know
It's made for testing on your own computer, not for running a public website.
