Apache Friends Support Forum

I just had someone briefly describe XAMPP and I wanted to understand....can I build my Wordpress website entirely on XAMPP and then FTP the whole site to my server at one time? Are there any challenges involved?
Thanks,
Jickers

No responses? Is this typical for this forum? Thanks.

Do you think you are right here in a Xampp Forum for Windows, instead of Wordpress Forum for Webservers?

Anyway, I dont think that this will work sufficiently. Therefore, my answer: No.

Yes. You have to export/import a full MySQL Database for Wordpress, which (what i believe) works on MySQL.

Thanks in advance for your thanks.

Thank you Nobbie. I appreciate your frank assessment.
