Organization of the site in the local network with access to it via Wi-Fi - how?

Question

WiFi

There is a laptop connected through to the router (Wi-Fi).
The laptop is running Denwer , which is running a local site.
It is necessary to provide access to this local site for any device connected to the Wi-Fi network.
Theoretically, I understand everything, but in practice there are questions:
1) If my Denwer site is in the folder (local domain) localhost , then I can access it via Wi-Fi network from any device via http://ip-address of the laptop on the local WiFi network where Denwer is running? Same way? Then, after connecting the laptop to the WiFi network, you need to find out its ip and through it breaks to the site.
2) I need to set it all up for people who do not understand anything at all, ideally they should just:
- turn on the laptop, run Denwer on it
- turn on the router, connect to its WiFi network from all necessary devices
- get to the site, working on Denwer in a laptop, from any device (computer, mobile, tablet)
How would you organize this?

Answer 1

This is all easy to do.
1) you need to enable Denver to access it by ip, not only by localhost (the solution is quickly googled)
2) check on the laptop, go to the ip address of the laptop
3) check from any other device via wi-fi, go to the ip address laptop
4) so ​​that the ip-address of the laptop does not change, you need to make a setting in the DHCP server of the router so that it always gives out the same address to this laptop

Answer 2

First, configure your router's DHCP to give out a static address for your laptop. Or write this address in the settings of the computer itself. Next, you raise the local DNS on the same laptop, add an entry with the local domain and a static ip address on the DNS server. Now your clients will be able to access the site by type " http://local-domain-name ". I think it's much more convenient. Just in case, check your firewall settings.
