Thanks - I’ve now got an overview of what this is about.

Installing on your local computer requires a server of some kind. Many people use XAMPP.

The advantage of having a local install is that things work a little faster and you can use your favorite editor on some of the files. The down side is that you need a way of synchronizing the local site with the remote. There are some tools for this but they’re fairly new and may still have some quirks.

Hi Bob, could you give me the names/links for the sync tools you mention?

Thanks!

I was afraid you’d ask that.

BkUpModx lets you back up and restore the remote and Auditor does version control. Click on the Resources tab at the upper right of this page to find them.

I know there’s an add-on that lets you push changes to the remote site but I can’t find it or think of the name. Sorry. Hopefully, someone will chime in.

Thanks Bob, much appreciated.
