XAMPP
Apache Friends · A PHP development environment packaged as an Apache distribution with MariaDB, PHP 7, and Perl.
About
XAMPP is an Apache distribution intended for PHP development. This Homebrew cask is the xampp@7 variant, whose package description identifies Apache, PHP 7, and Perl; the official XAMPP site describes the distribution as including MariaDB. It is a separate, older variant from the site's current download listings.
- Bundles an Apache web server with components for PHP development.
- Includes PHP 7 and Perl, as described for this cask.
- The official XAMPP overview lists MariaDB as part of the distribution.
- The installer runs unattended and requires administrator privileges.
Install with brew install --cask xampp@7. The cask conflicts with the unversioned xampp cask, so both cannot be installed together. XAMPP is development software, not a font or a programming editor. The cask's installer targets macOS and invokes an osx-x86_64 installer executable.
