UniWamp v0.1.0-alpha Release Notes

Status: alpha target

UniWamp v0.1.0-alpha is the first planned alpha release for early Windows validation. It is intended for local development testing and feedback, not production use.

Alpha Scope

  • Portable Delphi VCL dashboard for managing a local Apache, MariaDB, and PHP stack.
  • Runtime-aware generation of Apache, PHP, MariaDB, vHost, and environment config files.
  • Local virtual host management with browser, folder, editor, terminal, delete, and SSL actions.
  • PHP runtime selection and PHP extension management.
  • Script catalog UI for installing common PHP web applications.
  • Terminal-style installation output for script runs.
  • Developer tool launchers for local workflow support.

Required Runtime Files

Unless using a package profile that bundles runtimes, provide these files in the UniWamp tree:

  • runtime/apache/bin/httpd.exe
  • runtime/mariadb/bin/mariadbd.exe
  • runtime/mariadb/bin/mysqladmin.exe
  • runtime/php/<version>/php.exe
  • runtime/php/<version>/php8apache2_4.dll or a compatible Apache PHP module

Optional runtime/tool files:

  • runtime/apache/bin/openssl.exe
  • runtime/nodejs/<version>/...
  • bin/cmder/Cmder.exe
  • home/adminer/index.php

Known Limitations

  • This is an alpha validation target. Expect incomplete test coverage and rough edges.
  • Clean-machine package validation must be completed before publishing the tag externally.
  • Some script catalog entries depend on upstream installers and may require per-application fixes.
  • Runtime folders are intentionally not tracked in Git.
  • Generated website project folders under www/ are intentionally ignored.
  • The app is designed for local development workflows only.
