How to run a website on your computer?

Question

Domain name market

I need for tests. I am completely zero in this, I hope that it will not be difficult for you to share links. Domain, as I understand it, still have to buy? (What will be the default address? localhost?) Or can I make a test one on the server?
I heard about denwer - will it suit me?

Answer 1

You can also edit the file hosts
-windows: C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts
-linux: /etc/hosts
Add this entry:
127.0.0.1 mydomain.com
and your local site will be available athttp://mydomain.com

Answer 2

For a local site, you do not need to buy a domain (you can make any). And so the simplest - OpenServer. Because the software is outdated in Denver

Answer 3

Answer 4

OpenServer will solve your problems, and as for a newcomer to the network, a lot of manuals.
