gizmola Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 No, PHP does not have a compiler -- it's an interpreted language with a runtime environment. Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/289444-php-mysql-softwares/#findComment-1483901 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ch0cu3r Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 (edited) Not sure what you are asking, but you can install PHP and MySQL locally on your PC so you can test your PHP scripts locally without having to upload your files to a webhost. To do so you can install them manually yourself or you can install an all in one packages such as WAMP (for windows only), XAMPP (for windows, *nix & Mac) or MAMP (for Mac only) on your PC to get your development environment setup locally.

They require a server to run, whether it's some host or your own machine. You cannot make standalone desktop software with it. Look into Java, .NET, or C++ if that's what you're aiming for.
