It's always handy to have a running webserver on your USB hard disk or pendrive. Yes it's possible. Server2Go is a Webserver that runs "out of box" without any installation. That means it is a webserver that can run directly from cdrom, usb stick or from any folder on harddisk. Server2Go allows you to create a standalone working web site or PHP application on a CD-ROM or in a USB drive. Using a web browser, a user can run php programs as well as view html files on the CD-ROM. He only need to insert a CD with Server2Go under the supported Windows operations systems. The server starts automaticly and opens a browser with the Website of the CD-ROM. For PHP developers and the persons who need to show demo of their work.. It's a great choice for them. Features including:
Free! No royalties
Complete WAMPP Server
Runs directly from CD-ROM, USB Stick or Harddisk without installation
