I trust the experts have moved on, they know how to find the switch. But for use mere mortals how the hell do we find it. That’s the whole point of the new user section, I assume all you want to do is use Uniform Server as a tool, for learning programming languages such as Perl and PHP or perhaps you are more interested in MySQL databases. May be you have third party programs or those cut and pate scripts you would like to check out? Well what are you waiting let’s get on with it.

Installing is easy, follow the '''[[New Users: Quick Install Guide | quick install guide]]''', however like a new car driver expect a few minor bumps, we do not want any major crashes so pre-empt this by first looking at the [[New Users: Problems Section | Problems Page]].

I have tried to reduce the amount of link hopping a consequence of this are long pages in general one page per topic. External links are confined to additional information worth reading if you want to. One page you may find intimidating [[New Users: Security | New Users Security]] this is not intended to be read from top to bottom it’s purely a reference page which I link into and then only refer to certain sections. If you are an insomniac I am sure reading this page will be beneficial.
