EDITOR NOTES
Commercial version of MAMP, MAMP Pro available here.
DESCRIPTION
MAMP... The abbreviation MAMP stands for: Macintosh, Apache, MySQL and PHP. With just a few mouse-clicks, you can install Apache, PHP and MySQL for Mac OS X!

MAMP installs a local server environment in a matter of seconds on your Mac OS X computer, be it PowerBook or iMac. Like similar packages from the Windows- and Linux-world, MAMP comes free of charge.

MAMP is installed in the typical Mac fashion: very easily. MAMP will not compromise any existing Apache installation already running with your OS X. You can install Apache, PHP and MySQL without starting a script or having to change any configuration files!

Furthermore, if MAMP is no longer needed, it is sufficient to delete the MAMP folder and everything returns to its original status (i.e. MAMP does not modify any of the "normal" OS X).

Similar to a Linux-Distribution, MAMP is a combination of free software and thus it is offered free of charge. MAMP is released under the GNU General Public License and may thereby be distributed freely within the boundaries of this license. Please note: some of the included software is released using a different license. In these cases, the corresponding license applies.

MAMP was created primarily as a PHP development environment for Macintosh computer and should therefore not be used as Live Webserver for the Internet. In this case, we recommend that you use Mac OS X server with the provided Apache or a Linux server.

IMAGE_CTRL  Since the past year i've been using XAMPP and while both will do pretty much the same thing, I just find the look and feel of MAMP to be a touch smarter. The dashboard widget for server access is great. thank you very much MAMP Team.

KANNY  This is bulky Universal Binary installation at 374MB. Use the following command to thin it :

ditto --arch ppc /Applications/MAMP/ /Applications/MAMP_thin

Then remove MAMP dir and rename MAMP_thin to MAMP and you save 140MB! If you are on an Intel Mac, use --arch i386 instead.

GAOSHAN  This is THE all in one web serving environment for the Mac. Don't waste time with xampp (it's clunkier to use) just use MAMP. I have a each project I work on set up as a local environment (likt http://twc:8888/). It speeds development hugely and lets me make fewer version control checkins which is always a good thing.

Yes, you can setup your own dev environment by hand or with fink/macports but this is even easier than that!

THEODORE LEE  I'm a little confused. What do I get in Mamp Pro that isn't already in the free XAMPP or MAMP?

MACUPDATE ADMIN  That information has not been made available by the developer, if it were available it would have been posted on the MacUpdate page for MAMP.

GAOSHAN  The only change is that PHP has been upgraded from 5.2.3 to 5.2.5. Everything else from Apache and MySQL right on down to phpMyAdmin and the littlest library is the same.

MD07  Haha. Gotta agree with a previous post about almost laughing at how easy this was to use. Best thing for macs? Probably. Better than Tiger server (for mamp)? Probably. Thanks!!

STRIDER72  This is _not_ the same thing as using the server built-in to OS X. MAMP is not very secure -- they pretty much turn everything on for development purposes. Read the description -- this is recommended as a development platform -- not a live server.

ZENSURFER  I love MAMP have been using for over a year now with no probs. I love the fact that its non-standard ports as I have a "standard" LAMP setup which i use for demos. the MAMP version I use for dev work and basically messing around with new stuff, so its' totally isolated from my mission-critical stuff.

my only quirk is they don't support m-crypt (which I use) hopefully in the future they will find the time to include it as well.

It's a lovely app for us mac folks, much prep to the MAMP team and more power!
