Mars Server is a tool designed to provide an easy way to manage and deploy web applications. This tutorial will guide you through the process of installing Mars Server on Windows 10.
Before getting started, you will need:
Download the latest version of Mars Server from the official GitHub repository.
Extract the downloaded zip file to a directory of your choice.
Open a command prompt by pressing the Windows key + R, then type cmd and hit Enter.
Navigate to the Mars Server directory using the cd command. For example, if you downloaded and extracted Mars Server to the C:\Users\User\Desktop\mars-server directory, type the following command and hit Enter:

PORT=8080
