About XAMPP 1.8.1?

XAMPP is a versatile, free, and open source web server solution stack package that is cross-platform compatible. It includes the Apache HTTP Server, MySQL database, and interpreters for scripts in PHP and Perl. With XAMPP, users can quickly and easily download and run a single zip, tar, 7z, or exe file, requiring minimal configuration of its components. The software is regularly updated to integrate the latest releases of Apache, MySQL, PHP, and Perl, along with additional modules such as OpenSSL and phpMyAdmin. Originally designed for development purposes, XAMPP allows website designers and programmers to test their work on their local machines without internet access. Security features are initially disabled for ease of use. Additionally, XAMPP offers support for creating and manipulating databases in MySQL and SQLite, among others. Once installed, XAMPP enables users to treat localhost as a remote host by connecting through an FTP client such as FileZilla, providing advantages for installing content management systems like Joomla. It also allows for connecting to localhost via FTP with a HTML editor.
