			For developers interested in customizing WordPress (themes, plugins etc), an AMP (Apache, MySQL, PHP) stack facilitates a quick setup. Recommended here, is one easy way to set up an AMP stack which has cross-platform capability ie., [http://docs.uabgrid.uab.edu/wiki/XAMPP XAMPP] developed by Apache Friends.

			=== Mac OS X ===
			==== XAMPP ====
			:1. [http://docs.uabgrid.uab.edu/wiki/XAMPP Install and configure XAMPP for Mac]. Here we are installing XAMPP-beta.
			:'''NOTE''': Wordpress requires atleast PHP version of 4.3 and MySQL of 4.2 and XAMPP-beta provides the latest versions, MySQL (5.1.46) and PHP (5.3.2), which is compatible with the latest Wordpress software.
			:2. Start up xampp as root, either from xampp's control or from command line. This starts both Apache and mysql services.
			<pre>
			$ sudo /Applications/XAMPP/xamppfiles/xampp start
			</pre>

			==== Database ====

			:1. Set up a database for wordpres using xampp's '''phpmyadmin''' console. Go to http://localhost/phpmyadmin/ to open up phpmyadmin console
			:2. Create a database with name '''wordpress'''
			:NOTE: you can leave the database defaults for username and password, which for xampp's mysql is '''root''' and no password.
			:If you have [http://docs.uabgrid.uab.edu/wiki/XAMPP#Mac_OS_X_3 secured xampp], make sure you change privileges for the user '''root''' for ''wordpress'' db accordingly.

			==== Download WordPress ====
			The following steps are from the [http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress#Famous_5-Minute_Install wordpress famous 5-minute install].

			Download wordpress, extract to '''~/Sites'''
			<pre>
			$ wget http://wordpress.org/latest.zip

			$ unzip wordpress-3.0.3.zip -d ~/Sites

			$ cd ~/Sites

			</pre>
			==== Run WordPress Installer ====
			:1. Browse to http://localhost/~short-username/wordpress
			:2. Wordpress offers to [http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress#Setup_configuration_file create and edit the '''wp-config.php''']. Fill in the database details as mentioned in the phpmyadmin console for '''wordpress''' database.
			:3. [http://codex.wordpress.org/Installing_WordPress#Finishing_installation Finish installation]
