What is the best way to open locally a WP site?

[ad_1]

I apologize if this has been asked already.

I started to work on a client site where they need me to upload an image, and what I did first is to download to my computer the site content using FileZilla. I have been opening HTML files in the browser to know where to make those changes. But it does not show the the page how it should be, meaning like if there was no JavaScript code. And there are a lot of PHP files, so my question is, in what way can view the site locally how it looks live? With all the configuration of CSS and JS?

This is the first time I work with a WordPress site in this way. I have always worked before just from the Accounts page and making configurations just with point and click.

I hope it makes sense what I wrote. Thank you!

  1. I’m afraid you are in over your head. I don’t mean to sound harsh, I really don’t…but this is so far off the mark that you shouldn’t be taking WP clients. You are going to break more than you can handle fixing.
