This program seems to be an alternative to XAMPP, but focusing on using the Laravel framework for webdev. Apparently Laragon includes some novel features (eg, "auto create virtual hosts").Authors wrote:Just a click ... Turns your computer into a powerful server!
Laragon offers you a fast, powerful and Isolated Development Environment. It is portable and very flexible.
The developers emphasise its portability (untested!):
Installing Laragon is effortless & doesn't affect your OS (Windows). You can move Laragon folder around (to another disks, to another laptops, sync to Cloud,...) and it still works.
However, beware that using the setup program will create a start menu entry, icon on desktop and an entry in Programs & Features. It may create other folders/reg entries too. Since the installer basically just extracts the files, I suppose Uniextraction will work.Note: Laragon is very portable, and you DON'T NEED TO UNINSTALL the previous version. Just overwrite it, your data is safe and Laragon will works with new features. You can install to many instances of Laragon in your OS and all of them work fine!
