Web Developer 101-Use Web Servers to Build Sites on your PC

Hello:

This class will cover a variety of ways to install and setup web servers on your pc so you can start making websites that can be locally viewed and tested. The ways covered will include:

– Installing an Apache Web Server on the Ubuntu version of the Linux operating system (many custom configurations to the server will also be covered)

– Installing an Apache Web Server included with XAMPP on a Linux operating system (custom configurations to the server will also be covered)

– Installing a Microsoft IIS Web Server on a Windows operating system (many custom configurations to the server will also be covered)

– Installing an Apache Web Server included with XAMPP on Windows (refer to the Apache Server videos on Linux for custom configurations)

After each server installation, I will detail how you can configure websites on each web server with things like password protection, virtual directories, url redirects, reverse proxies, and more.

Additionally, I will cover how to:

– Install website builders such as WordPress, Drupal and Joomla on both the Apache and Microsoft IIS Servers

– Set up the ASP.NET core and NodeJS web development scripting frameworks on a Microsoft IIS Server
