wildteen88 Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Xampp is designed to allow you to install Apache, PHP and MySQL quickly and easily on your computer. All software that comes with XAMPP is open source and comes with their own License(s). Xampp should only be used as a development server only.

JasonLewis Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 I don't see why not. It's Open Source software, and you're not selling the software, your making a website for people. It would seem silly if it were illegal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
