Have you ever thought about how to get your own server on your own computer? Then you can read this blog post.

I have been using FlyWheel’s free version / Local / for several years .

There you can create websites without a web host. This is good if you ex make websites for others or for yourself, then you can install ex WordPress and create, test, try your creations and it is a ton of fun I can promise.

This is one of the platforms available.

What can you do then?

The WordPress installation is done automatically.

Local installs WordPress for you. With just one click, your website is up and running, complete with SSL!

Advanced development features

Local provides root SSH access, WP-CLI and the ability to hot-swap PHP environments for convenient testing!

Push and pull sites like Flywheel or WP Engine for super-simplified offline editing and get started from Local.
