If you're looking for a good local development environment, Devaron is an all-in-one app that replaces the usual tangle of installers and config files. It bundles the servers, databases and tools you need, manages them with one click, and stays out of your way — one modern app, no installers and no config files.

Everything in one app

All the pieces of a real web stack, managed from a single clean interface.

Web servers & languages

Apache and Nginx, PHP with multiple versions, Node.js and Python — start, stop and switch versions in a click.

A PHP version per site

Pin a different PHP version to each project (with a global default), on Apache and Nginx alike. Most tools only do this globally — Devaron does it per site.

Databases

MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis and Memcached. Manage them in the browser with phpMyAdmin and Adminer (MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL, SQLite).

Sites & domains

Every folder in your www becomes a site automatically. Pretty URLs (virtual hosts) with your own domain suffix, local SSL/HTTPS, and Laravel/Symfony public folders detected.

Share to the internet

One click puts any site online with a public URL via Cloudflare Tunnel (no account) or ngrok — choosing the web server and HTTP/HTTPS.

Create a site in one click

New project right from the app: blank, Laravel, Symfony, WordPress or Node + Vite — it scaffolds the folder, picks the PHP version and can create the database for you.

Reverse proxy & phone QR

Point a pretty domain at any local port (Vite, Node, Python) with a reverse proxy, and open any site on your phone with a QR code over the same Wi-Fi.

Utilities & quick commands

A built-in dev toolbox — JWT decode, hashes, Base64, UUID, timestamps and "what's using this port" — plus quick commands like timed shutdown, lock and flush DNS, and a Ctrl+K command palette.

Developer tools

Git, Composer, phpMyAdmin, Adminer and Mailpit for catching test emails. A terminal that already knows your environment (PHP, Node, Composer on PATH).

Task scheduler

Run commands on a schedule inside the Devaron environment — perfect for the Laravel scheduler, queue jobs and maintenance scripts.

Dashboard & logs

Live CPU, memory, disk, GPU and network usage, quick links, and real-time logs for every service.

Quality of life

Portable (no install), system tray, run at startup, auto-update, dark/light themes and multiple languages.

Why developers pick Devaron

Per-site PHP

Run legacy and modern projects side by side — PHP 7.4 here, 8.4 there — without ever touching a config file.

Truly portable

No installer, no registry mess. It all lives in one folder you can move or carry on a USB drive.

One-click sharing

Show a client your work in seconds with a public URL — no deploy, no setup.

Native & modern

A fast, clean desktop app — not a stack of scripts. Dropdowns, icons, dark mode, your language.

Free

Free to use, forever. If it saves you time, a donation keeps it growing.

Frameworks ready

Laravel, WordPress, Symfony and any PHP/Node project run out of the box — public folders and pretty URLs included.

Everything included

Frequently asked questions

Is Devaron free?

Yes — completely free to use. Devaron is not open source, but it's free and supported by optional donations.

Is it open source?

No. The source isn't public, but the app is free for everyone and always will be.

Can I really run a different PHP version per project?

Yes. Pick a PHP version per site (with a global default) and Devaron routes each one correctly on both Apache and Nginx.

How do I manage my databases?

phpMyAdmin and Adminer are built in. Adminer alone manages MySQL, MariaDB, PostgreSQL and SQLite from the browser; MongoDB works great with MongoDB Compass.

Which platforms are supported?

Devaron runs on Windows today, with macOS and other platforms on the way. It's a portable app (32 & 64-bit) — just unzip and run.

How is Devaron different?

Devaron bundles everything — Apache, Nginx, per-site PHP, multiple databases and one-click sharing — in one modern, portable app, with no installer and no config files.
