Local Development Environments

A local development environment is a setup on your computer where developers create, test, and refine software or websites before making them publicly available. It replicates the live internet version but operates privately, allowing safe experimentation without affecting the real website. This environment includes tools and software that mimic the production setup, ensuring that when the project is ready, it can be smoothly deployed online. Essentially, it’s a personal workshop where developers can work comfortably and securely without impacting the actual website or application in use by others.
