A Local Stack

You deploy to a server but write code on a laptop. This section puts a LAMP stack on that laptop three ways: a real Ubuntu 225 inside the Windows Subsystem for Linux 6 , a desktop bundle such as WampServer 861,070 or MAMP 75,362 , or containers under Docker Compose 514 , and closes with a table that helps you choose.
