Using Laragon for My Local PHP Development
Since when I started dipping my toes into PHP by creating the Cassette Beasts fanlisting and subsequently my fanlisting collective, I have been using PHP's built-in web server to preview my PHP pages.
However, a major drawback of PHP's built-in web server for my PHP development was that when I used the web server to preview my fanlisting collective, the CSS stylesheet of my Cassette Beasts fanlisting will not get applied. Therefore, I have been searching for alternative development environment software for PHP. I tried out XAMPP, but it was not well-designed for developing multiple PHP projects; I even tried out Docker, which was overkill, especially since my back-end web development skills are not developed enough to be able to make use of Docker yet.
Finally, I discovered Laragon, which gave me what I needed: lightweight, fast, and easy to switch between different PHP projects. As a result, I finally decided to settle for Laragon for the development of Leilukin's Hub's PHP websites.
