Hi PHP community,
I built Pterocos (https://pterocos.eu.org) - a free online editor that runs
PHP code entirely in your browser. No installation, no
account required.
**Why this might be helpful for those with installation issues:**
- Test PHP snippets without XAMPP/WAMP setup
- No PATH or environment variable configuration needed
- No PHP version conflicts - runs consistently via WebAssembly
- Perfect for beginners who haven't installed PHP yet
- Works on locked-down or shared machines where you can't install software
**What Pterocos supports:**
- PHP 🐘
- C# (.NET)
- Rust 🦀
- Python 🐍
- Ruby 💎
- SQL (SQLite and DuckDB)
- Lua
The editor runs entirely client-side - your code never leaves your browser.
**Try it:** https://pterocos.eu.org
Would love feedback from the community!
Best regards,
