For the new WordPress developer it is very important to know how the WordPress would work on the local host, to do that there is a very popular localhost server available for free on the internet known as XAMPP, you have install that on your local computer.
 
XAMPP is actually the Apache web server for PHP, MySQL and Perl that let the developer to do the local testing and plentiful other stuff before launching the site onto the internet.
 
xampp install
 
To download and install XAMPP follow the steps:
 
1. Download the XAMPP for your Operating System.
 
Choose installation Location
 
2. Run the Installer and chose where to install XAMPP, then wizard will guide you through the installation.

3. After installation check XAMPP is running by clicking on the XAMPP icon.
 
XAMMP control Panel
 
4. Finally take a test whether XAMPP is installed and running successfully on your localhost. Click on your browser to open it and write http://localhost in the address bar, the XAMPP page should appear displaying the message Congratulations: You have successfully installed XAMPP on this system!"

This software seems great I'll surely check it out. I've been meaning to start using WordPress for quite some time but due to certain hindrances I always fail to begin. But now I think I'll be more than happy to start using WordPress. My friends use WordPress online only so I had no idea it can be used offline as well. 
 
Thanks a ton!
