Reliable
Laragon is a reliable development environment with built-in service orchestration. It ensures smooth startup, shutdown, and restart of services without crashes or conflicts.
Reliable by Design
Laragon is built to be extremely reliable, thanks to its self-contained architecture and automatic configuration. All essential services and components are pre-configured and auto-configured to work seamlessly out of the box, reducing setup errors and minimizing system conflicts.
In Case of Crashes
With Laragon’s robust architecture, database crashes and critical failures are extremely rare. Unlike other environments where a crash can render your entire setup unusable, Laragon is designed to recover gracefully.
If an issue does occur, there's no need to panic. Simply back up and remove the corrupted data from the following directory:
{LARAGON_ROOT}\data
In most development environments, doing so would cause critical failures or require manual recovery steps. But with Laragon, there's no need to worry - it will intelligently regenerate a fresh and fully functional data
directory on the fly, allowing you to continue working without interruption.
This resilience makes Laragon ideal for both beginners and professionals who need a stable, low-maintenance development environment.
Automatic Backups
Laragon includes a built-in auto backup feature to help protect your MySQL data. By default, it creates backups every 8 hours and retains the 5 most recent versions for added peace of mind.
This ensures your data is safe and easily recoverable - even in the event of unexpected issues.
You can customize the backup frequency using Menu > Preferences
