How to access WAMP from local network

Question

I have a website installed on a localhost WAMP, so I need to access it from another connected through LAN or Wi-Fi on the same network.

I want to access the information on the localhost website on another PC which is also connected on the same local network. So how can I do this?

I have tried installing on a free hosting site, but it doesn't create. Let me install it as I don't know the database hostname of that web hosting service.

Dont use `localhost` use the real `IP Address` in the browser, that should work in local network. — JustOnUnderMillions, Jan 31 '17 at 16:49
Also take care to open port 80 if that MS-Windows system is running a local firewall. Or deactivate the firewall completely for a test. — arkascha, Jan 31 '17 at 16:53

You have to use the IP address of your system, where your project is installed. Instead of localhost then you have to connect with LAN to your other system.

Then type your IP Address followed by your project name. You will see your project on the other system.

Yes Karan Rustagi, you have to setup the website on every computer and database will be only in one computer, and database host name will be the IP address of database system – Sandeep Naruka Feb 07 '17 at 06:03
