Ayah K Alrifai yes, to run PHP on your computer you need a local host/server. Check these out : https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8580273/how-to-run-php-files-on-my-computer https://www.phpknowhow.com/basics/running-php-files/ https://www.techwalla.com/articles/how-to-run-a-php-file-in-xampp

Do you have a local host like XAMPP installed on your computer?

Php is server script, it cannot run directly by openning the local php file alone. If your machine os is Windows, you could install local server tool such as XAMPP to form a local php server on your machine first, which allow local browser to open php from C:\xampp\htdocs folder or run php -S index.php cmd to run index.php php file from other folder.
