Add products via localhost on computer? Not web..?

Hey guys,

 

I was wondering if it would be possible to download my admin section and database and be able to add products to my site using the admin GUI without having internet access or connecting to my web hosting server.

 

I have seen the Easy Populate contribution, but dont like adding product in excel. Is there anyway I can do this with using the admin GUI?

 

And then when I am finished I can just save the new DB and upload it...

 

Any thoughts?? :)

You can run your entire site locally on a windows machine by installing easyphp or xampp but no matter what you do you will then have to update the database/files/images online.

 

Setting up a website online to gather data from your machine is a pain in the butt, your machine can never be off, and it tends to be slow.

I will look into easyphp and xampp. The reason is because I am going out of town and I will have a lot of free time but now internet access and I want to be able to work on my store. And then upload the database when I return.

 

I dont want to set up a website online from my machine...But thanks for the info.
