What you need for this book
The prerequisites for this book include the following:
- A computer
- A web browser
- A text editor
- FTP software
Users may like a text editor that highlights code (such as Coda, TextMate, HTMLKit, and so on), but a simple text editor is all that's required.
Users may like to run local copies of WordPress on their computers, in which case they need a server such as Apache and MySQL installed (though WAMP and MAMP would take care of all that for them), but it's also not necessary as they could do the entire thing remotely.
