Its user-friendly nature extends to the deployment of common packaged applications, facilitated by Bitnami. XAMPP stands out for its simplicity in setting up a WAMP webserver stack. New updates may contain more bugs and issues than they solve, so always keep a backup handy so that you can revert to an earlier server image if needed. While it’s tempting to always update to the latest version of a platform, always remember to back up your server before you do. Most of the builds that XAMPP releases aren’t for XAMPP itself, but for its individual components. XAMPP mainly provides a method for acquiring and updating to the latest version of all of its included tools.
