What are the potential pitfalls of using PHP for offline development?
One potential pitfall of using PHP for offline development is that PHP is a server-side scripting language, meaning it requires a server environment to run. To overcome this limitation, you can use a local server environment like XAMPP or MAMP to simulate a server on your local machine.
// Example of using XAMPP to run PHP scripts offline
// Install XAMPP on your local machine and start the Apache server
// Place your PHP files in the htdocs folder within the XAMPP directory
// Access your PHP files through a web browser using localhost
