Need a local copy of WordPress (or Joomla, Drupal, Moodle..) to work on without messing with your server? One that can work from a flash drive so it’s portable or can be easily installed on your hard drive? Thanks to Colin King over at CK Marketing I came across this very easy way. WOS Portable (Web Server on a Stick ) is a free, Open Source application for Windows. Head over to chsoftware.net and download WOS Portable, plus Apache, MySqL, PHPMyAdmin and the packages you’re interested in, TYPO3, Joomla!, Mambo, Wordpress, Moodle, OS Commerce, Drupal, Xoops and more.
Installation is easy and you’ll have a web server plus you’re WordPress installation up and running very quickly. I didn’t even need to set up a database for the WordPress install, it was done automatically.
I won’t put a detailed tutorial here as there’s an excellent one at Colin’s post at CK Marketing. He’s even provided a PDF version of the tutorial!
Have fun!
