BitNami WordPress Stack

BitNami WordPress Stack is a distribution package for WordPress, comprising MySQL, Apache and PHP. It includes handy configuration settings and enables you to get a WordPress installation up and running in no time.

The complete package includes PhpMyAdmin but it can be excluded from the installer. Before proceeding any further, you are required to create an admin account by indicating a name, email address, user name and password, along with a blog name. You can enable email notifications via Gmail or custom account (SMTP).

Once the setup is over, BitNami WordPress Stack brings up a window, where you can start, stop and start the servers, as well as change their settings. For example, you can edit the port number for the MySQL database, open its log file and manually edit the configuration file, as well as switch to a different port and SSL port for the Apache web server, as well as open the access and error logs.

The project you're currently working on can be viewed in a web browser. BitNami WordPress Stack includes a simple starter blog that you can continue developing, which features a search function, recent posts and comments, archives, and categories.

No error dialogs were shown in our tests, and the tool did not hang or crash. It has a good response time and minimal impact on computer performance, thanks to the fact that it needs a low amount of CPU and RAM to work properly.

BitNami WordPress Stack comes loaded with the necessary and suffice features for installing open-source software to help you develop and manage websites.
