Introduction:

In order to use the Scifi Admin template locally, you need to deploy it on a local server or any other hosting server. This step-by-step guide will walk you through the process of setting up the template on local servers using XAMPP, WAMP, or LAMP, which are popular options for local server environments. Please follow the instructions below carefully.

Prerequisites:

• Download and install XAMPP, WAMP, or LAMP based on your preferences and operating system.
• Ensure that you have the Scifi Admin template available on your local machine.

1. Run the installer for XAMPP, WAMP, or LAMP and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation process.

2. Once installed, launch the server environment.

1. Open the server control panel (XAMPP Control Panel, WAMP Manager, or LAMP Manager).

2. Locate the "Server Root" or "Document Root" directory path Example: For XAMPP, htdocs and For WAMP, www. This is the location where your server files are stored.

1. Please extract the Scifi Admin template zip folder that you have purchased and place it in the root directory of your preferred server.

2. After extraction, you will find the following folders in your root directory.

       
							
			├── documentation
			├── starterkit
			├── scifi
			|   ├── assets
			|   ├── pages
			|   ├── esbuild.config.js
			|   ├── package.json
			|   ├── package-lock.json
			
										
									
								

3. Here "scifi" is your main template folder, which contains all the files and folders of the Scifi admin template as shown in the above folder structure.

1. Open your preferred web browser.

2. Enter "localhost" or "127.0.0.1" in the address bar.

3. Add the template file path to the URL. For example, if the template's main file is named "index.php" and located in a folder named "scifi/pages/" the URL would be: "localhost/scifi/pages/index.php"

4. If you wish to exclude Scifi from the URL, kindly replicate all files and folders from the Scifi folder and relocate them to the root directory of your preferred server.

5. Once you have effectively transferred all the files and folders to the root directory of your preferred server, please proceed with the following steps.

6. To access the template, launch your preferred web browser and enter the URL. If the main file of the template is named "index.php" and resides within a directory called "pages/" located in the root directory of your server, the URL to access it locally would be: "localhost/pages/index.php"

7. By utilizing the "pages" folder, developers are able to maintain a structured arrangement of .php files, enabling them to navigate and understand the template more effectively.

Make sure your local server environment (XAMPP/WAMP/LAMP) is running whenever you want to access the Scifi Admin template.

If you encounter any errors or issues during the setup process, refer to the documentation provided by XAMPP, WAMP, or LAMP, or consult their respective support forums for assistance.

By following the above steps, you can deploy and access the Scifi Admin template locally using XAMPP, WAMP, or LAMP. Enjoy exploring the template and customizing it to meet your requirements. These are some alternative methods to run PHP template. Each approach has its own advantages and considerations, so choose the one that best suits your requirements and familiarity with the tools.

Introduction to the PHP Template Starter Kit:

The PHP template starterkit is a resource that helps developers kickstart their PHP web development projects by providing a preconfigured and ready-to-use template. It aims to simplify the initial setup and provide a foundation for building PHP-based websites or applications.

Purpose of the PHP Template Starter Kit:

The purpose of the PHP template starter kit is to save developers time and effort by offering a set of prebuilt files and configurations commonly used in PHP projects. Instead of starting from scratch, developers can leverage the starter kit to quickly set up a project structure that adheres to best practices and industry standards.

Benefits of Using the PHP Template Starter Kit:

The starter kit eliminates the need to set up the basic project structure manually. It provides a well-organized file and folder structure, including commonly used directories for separating code, templates, assets, and configuration files. This allows developers to focus more on implementing business logic rather than spending time on initial setup.
Before using the PHP template starter kit, developers should have a basic understanding of PHP and web development concepts. Additionally, they should have a web server environment (such as Apache or Nginx) and PHP installed on their local machines or a hosting server. Familiarity with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript is also beneficial for frontend development aspects.

Starterkit Overview

You can use the Starterkit if you are creating a new project. It will be time-consuming to use the full admin version for a new project as Scifi have more than 170 PHP pages.

We have provided all the pre-build layouts like Sidemenu, Header, Footer and Scripts etc in the Starterkit.
