Sokkit Main Features:
Somewhere along the way, it became necessary and normal to spend anywhere from 4 hours to weeks trying to get to the point where you can run that first PHP script. Sokkit changes that by taking on that burden for you. With Sokkit, you don't have to be a web server administrator to be a PHP web developer. Whether you code PHP with Dreamweaver MX or Notepad, Sokkit lets you focus on your PHP code rather than on tending your web server. So, download Sokkit today and quit worrying about babysitting your server and get on with writing your PHP code!People use Sokkit to do local PHP development (both commercial and open source), function as a utility web server on a workstation, as an internal intranet server, and even serve a live site.For those interested in the back story of Sokkit, yes, this is the very same product that used to be called PHPTriad. There were several reasons for the name change including a potential licensing issue. Along with the renaming, Sokkit was rewritten from scratch in November of 2002 to be based on Apache 2.0. Sokkit 3.4 is provided as a 30 day trial with a $19.95 registration fee. Paying the registration fee allows us to keep a roof over our heads and allows us time to work on Sokkit and other useful products.
