WAMP installs what is known as the AMP stack, which consists of Apache (http server), PHP (interpreter), and MySQL (database server).
WAMP is used as development environment so you can develop/test your PHP applications locally on your computer, without the need to be connected to the internet or having to upload your files to your website.
Before using WAMP you should first learn the basics of PHP/MySQL. You can start by reading the free ebook from here: [

WAMP is easy to use. Everything you need is installed and setup for you. Nothing needs to be changed. Just make sure you save all your sites files in C:/wamp/www
To run your PHP scripts go to [
localhost]
