MAMP - Mac, Apache, MySQL and PHP is a one click solution for setting up your personal server on Mac. MAMP installs a local server environment in a matter of seconds on your Mac OS X computer, be it MacBook or iMac. Like similar packages from the Windows- and Linux-world, MAMP comes free of charge. MAMP, is the acronym for Macintosh, Apache, MySQL and PHP, and, as a result, Apache is the first part of MAMP. Thanks to its modular structure, you can easily enhance the http web server using a wide variety of add ons. Furthermore, MAMP offers more than 70 Apache Modules that include PHP, Webdav, SSL, Cache, Auth and many more. MAMP does not alter anything on the normal macOS. If you have installed MAMP Cloud Functions you need to additionally remove your /Library/Application Support/appsolute/MAMP directory. If you have used MAMP PRO as well, use the MAMP PRO uninstaller to remove it.
