It keeps server-related software out of your desktop,.Did you know that if you run Skype and try to install XAMPP, the server won’t start? That’s because Skype is using port 80 for its connection, and you have to manually go in and disable this for XAMPP to work, It separates out programs and settings from your local desktop that can interfere with the operations of a server.There are many reasons to do your development work on a virtual machine over your daily desktop: This has got to stop, especially amongst PHP developers where we have tools like XAMPP that require nothing more than a simple zip extract to get up and running with your own “server”. Most that said anything about operating systems or platforms made it clear they were developing on their local machine, with no separation between their everyday driver and their development environment.
Out of 144 responses, I noticed that very few mentioned virtual machines. The usual answers came tumbling out – mostly about IDEs and methods for uploading their code (side note: FTP is a horrible way to do this!). Recently on r/php there was a thread asking users about their development environments. You can follow our blog for new images we release for VirtualBox.This tutorial has been replaced by Setting Up a Debian VM, Step by Step. It is a free and powerful x86 and AMD64/Intel64 virtualization product available for most of the operating systems such as Linux, Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, Solaris and ported version for FreeBSD. VirtualBox is the most easiest way to run secondary OS on your primary operating system, If your hardware doesn’t allow you to install any other operating system then VirtualBox comes in hand. We do not install ‘Guest Additions’ in the OS or add any kind of stuff, read our privacy policy.
Here you can follow the guide how to attach/configure VDI image with VirtualBox. You can check FAQs for Credentials( Username & Password) for VDI images.
At the moment we have plans to offer you 30+ Linux/Unix distributions, we may add more to our list in near future, you can also send us suggestions if we are missing any popular distribution from our list.
We offer images for both architectures 32bit and 64bit, you can download for free for both architectures. From here you can download and attach the VDI image to your VirtualBox and use it. We offer open-source (Linux/Unix) virtual machines (VDIs) for VirtualBox, we install and make them ready-to-use VirtualBox images for you.
