Run VS Code web dev online on server

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Sep 17.2022

I’m following this [tutorial](https://youtu.be/-Bk4siyhvDE) on making a translator with HTML/CSS/JS/PHP and I notice the person is using Apache XAMPP to run the program. First, I tried running my code with Live Server but I realized it isn’t suited to run this kind of program (same thing with “open in default browser” option). I kept getting this error…

POST http://127.0.0.1:5500/process.php 405 (Method Not Allowed) error

405 error![405 error](https://dev-to-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/uploads/articles/efw2txiey6jm32xj6rlq.png)

…with Live Server; however, I’m expecting “Hello Everyone.” to print on console (from 13:14 to 13:39 in video).

If it helps, here’s my files so far –

  • – assets
  • – js
  • – [app.js](https://pastebin.com/pW7jaPku)

  • – [jquery.min.js](https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.6.0/jquery.min.js) (downloaded into project)

  • – css
  • – style.css (empty)

  • – [tailwind.min.css](https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/tailwindcss/2.2.7/tailwind.min.css) (downloaded into project)

    • [index.html](https://pastebin.com/Zx5M7iqL)
    process.php (only contains the text “hello everyone.”)

    Because of the 405 error, I tried downloading XAMPP but ran into some issues and then decided to look for alternatives. So far I came across one called Community Server Connectors but I’m not exactly sure how I’d use it and if it works with web dev programs.

    How would I run the program without XAMPP? Are there any options that can run my program without errors, just like in the video? Thanks!

    @NogDogSep 17.2022 — I use Docker these days, myself, but there can be a bit of a learning curve. If it sounds like something you'd like to try, you'll want to install [Docker Desktop](https://docs.docker.com/desktop/) and maybe search for some recent tutorials on how to get it up and running with PHP. (Official PHP Docker images can be found at https://hub.docker.com/_/php)

    @NogDogSep 17.2022 — PS: Maybe you could just try the [PHP Server](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=brapifra.phpserver) VS Code extension, instead? 🤷‍♂️

    I'm using XAMPP either and your code is running without issues.

    I can see a lot of useful information. It's worked well.
