Netvod is a video streaming platform and a web application similar to Netflix. Its purpose is to watch films and series online. It is powered by PHP, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript with Ajax technology. It also uses a MySQL database to persist data. At present, it is in the development stage and is not ready to be produced.
To make this project work, you have to prepare your device with the following steps:
- You need to install XAMPP or WAMP. You can download it from here: https://www.apachefriends.org/download.html.
- Once you have installed XAMPP or WAMP, you must download this project and place it in the htdocs directory. The htdocs folder can be located in the XAMPP or WAMP folder.
- After this, you should start the Apache and MySQL server. You can do that by ticking on the start button in the XAMPP or WAMP control panel.
- After you have started the Apache and MySQL server, you need to open your browser and type localhost/phpmyadmin. You will be redirected to the phpmyadmin page.
- On the phpmyadmin page, you need to create a new database. This can be done by pressing the new button. The database file is automatically generated after running the localhost/creationDB.php page in your browser. It will automatically generate the data and tables needed for the smooth operation of this project.
- Netvod is ready and hosted on your device and can now be accessed through the following link: localhost/netvod, create an account and watch movies and series.
