WampServer in Android

Introduction

This article explains how to install WampServer in windows to make a local server for your Android application.

Wamp Server

Wamp Server (Windows, Apache, MySQL, PHP/Perl Python) is a small server that runs on the Windows operating system. Wamp includes a database administrator and phpMyAdmin data. Using this we can create a new database, tables and enter data. Wamp Server provides the facility to developers to make the web application locally with the operating system. Wamp Server is available for free and is open source.

Utility

Wamp Server provides an environment just like a server so the developer can use this local server to run web applications locally. Using Wamp Server the developer can see how the web application performs.
