I installed XAMPP whilst trying to set up a MediaWiki wiki on my website, but I don't actually know what it's for. I found the instructions for setting up my wiki quite confusing and I think I was looking at the wrong page for what I wanted to do. It also seems to have slowed down my PC a great deal. Can someone explain what XAMPP does so I can judge whether I need to keep it or not, as if not I'd like to uninstall it.
