That was a beautiful nostalgic moment! I've used xampp for several years with pleasure and only stopped using it when I switched to Linux.

Definitely recommended for those developing on Windows and don't want to mess with Docker. Great post!

I would highly recommend Laragon for local development.
Switched from XAMPP, never looked back.

Getting started with XAMPP is crucial for any developer's toolkit, much like installing the GoGoAnime APK for anime enthusiasts. Both serve as foundational tools, with XAMPP facilitating local server setup for web development, while the GoGoAnime APK brings easy access to a vast library of anime content. Configuring XAMPP marks the initial step towards creating dynamic websites, just as installing the GoGoAnime APK opens doors to a world of animated entertainment, making them indispensable resources for respective pursuits.

The only concern with PHP is whether I can have multiple projects / web servers in one PC?

What do you think about composer?

PHP can be hosted using Nginx, Apache and IIS, 3 of my tested web server of it and you can do multiple project on it, I hope this answer your first question.
Then I love Composer, this provide great package for my projects. I also recommend NPM.
