WordPress Installation on a local computer

UrbanGiraffe rocks! I just installed WordPress on my laptop (took me MUCH longer than five minutes, but what the hey - I haven’t a clue as to what I’m doing).  My ultimate goal is to figure out how to create my own WordPress theme - and installing WordPress was an amazing good way to start. Now I can hack away knowing I’m not really going to break anything. So if you want to play around with WordPress or with themes, check this guy’s tutorials out.

    Wow. If you installed WP on your local laptop, what happens when you switch it off? Is it a way of practising how to edit and modify it? Not for broadcasting to the world?

    Yep - it was a way to learn the backend of wordpress without it being live.
