Local PHP development for Windows - Apache, MySQL, PHP, and phpMyAdmin in one desktop app.
DevStackBox is free and open source. It gives you a modern interface to start services, edit configs, manage sites, handle SSL, and run backups. One installer, fixed paths, no telemetry.
- All-in-one - Apache, PHP, MySQL, and phpMyAdmin in a single setup
- Modern UI - Desktop app built with Tauri and React, not a tray of loose tools
- Fixed layout - Installs to
C:\devstackbox; app data in%LOCALAPPDATA%\devstackbox - Useful extras - Config editor, SSL, backup/restore, dark/light themes, English and Hindi
- Your machine stays yours - No telemetry; offline-friendly for everyday development
- Open source - MIT license
If you use XAMPP, Laragon, or WAMP today, DevStackBox targets the same stack with less manual wiring.
- Download the latest installer from GitHub Releases.
- Run setup (administrator rights required).
