The 78th most popular system tool on Mac OS X
MAMP is an easy to install Apache distribution for Macintosh containing MySQL, PHP. MAMP is installed in the typical Mac fashion: very easily. MAMP will not compromise any existing Apache installation already running with your OS X. You can install Apache, PHP and MySQL without starting a script or having to change any configuration files!… More Edit
I really like this package, pretty much instant set-up and it works like a treat; switching PHP versions is great for testing your code in different environments.
Nice little package indeed, but it lacks some of the nicer security features of Wampserver 2.0, a populair Windows package. I used this to develop code on a Mac a while back, which worked like a treat. I like the way you can set your PHP version on the fly to test for different shared hosting projects.
Easy local development! Don't spend your time on server administration if you can spend that time on code! ;-)
A one-program solution to running a local MySQL database and Apache web server that works flawlessly. Very impressive for a free application as well! If you develop web pages, get this now!
