Hello! The post is especially for fellow developers who want to set up PHP development environment in windows 7 or xp. There are a number of platforms which provide easy php development environment in windows. But I am going to discuss which I prefer the most for a smooth and well managed php project management. Just follow the following steps and get started with a comfortable environment to put your programming capabilities to work...
1. Download and Install latest wampServer from their official website. WampServer is an open source project created by a team of PHP developers. It includes all the basic applications for web development e.g.
- Apache
- Php
- Mysql
- PhpMyadmin
- SQLBuddy etc.
2. The second thing needed for smooth php or any web development is an editor to write the php codes. The simplest can be Notepad provided with any windows. For better development I would prefer one of the following editors.
Eclipse IDE for PHP developers or NetBeans IDE.
Now when both of them are successfully installed. Your computer is ready for a smooth web development. Open a new PHP project in NetBeans IDE and publish it to the WWW folder created in the wamp installed folder. That's all now you are ready to make use of your previous programming knowledge to implement in PHP with minor modifications which any easy tutorial from the web would guide through.

Eclipse is an open source community as well as NetBeans Community Distributions are available under a Dual License consisting of the Common Development and Distribution License (CDDL) v1.0 and GNU General Public License (GPL) v2. See the third-party readme for external components included in NetBeans and their associated licensesBoth of the IDE provide awesome intellisense for any kinds of development including PHP development. If you plan development as career than personally I would recommend complete setup of any one of them as must have.
