As per the title. Which is your preferred tool to use for building a website locally, on your PC before deploying it to the cloud?

I've been using Local by Flywheel but would love to hear what you guys use & your experience with the tool.

I use the old-school way Xampp works fine to date! Following this thread for other recommendations as well!

Laragon, Easy to deploy no bugs to be seen

You won't suddenly lose all your data like when with xampp or wampp.

Interesting. I haven't heard of them before. Looks to be nice & lightweight as well. I think I need to check this one out myself

XAMPP or WAMPP is my favorite.

Laragon. Wish it's available on Linux

Very interesting treat. I take a look at Laragon and Local by Flywheel.

I discarded XAMP and WAMP long ago and only test WP on subdomains. Really cool to have different options to return to working on local.

There are many website builders actually but most of them are very expensive. If you're looking for a more affordable solution, I would recommend you CloudFunnels. It's an all-in-one software that will not only help you to build a proper website but is also very affordable. The best part about this tool is that it integrates with major CRMs & autoresponders which saves me money on email marketing tools.
