    How did you end up having PHP on your local machine? πŸ˜€

    Did you install the PHP software manually? Or did it come bundled with some local “server” software stack? Is it “Local” by FlyWheel (from LocalWP.com)?

    I thought PHP is ‘built-in’ in WordPress and hence not matter where I have it installed I need to update it?. Isn;t this correct ?
    KIndly let me know
    Thanks

    WordPress does not come with PHP, it does run on PHP and some more dependencies:
