Features and Highlights
Unlimited number of hosts
With this desktop app you can create as many hosts as you want. Each host can be configured individually and thus adapted exactly to the target system. For example, choose if you need an Apache or NginX web server, which PHP version is needed, or if and which caching system is used. This allows you to work on your different projects in parallel without losing sight of the big picture.
Multi PHP
In CGI mode, you can run each of your virtual hosts with its own PHP version. This allows you to test your projects with different PHP versions - without having to restart the servers. You can choose from a variety of PHP versions from PHP 5.4.x to PHP 7.2.x In module mode, you select a PHP version that will automatically run on all your hosts. This is useful, for example, if you want to check if your projects are running under a certain PHP version.
Cloud

Now you can work on your projects on different computers without any problems. You can also use the cloud feature to back up individual or all hosts.
