30,096 PointsPlay around with Wordpress without paying for a domain name or hosting... how does one do this?
I just watched the Zac Gordon "Getting Started with Wordpress" video and it appears as though you have to buy a domain name and hosting in order to use the Wordpress interface?
Can someone access the Wordpress interface and create a blog/site for free, that is not live?
There must be a way to do this. Thanks in advance for any and all help!

Yes you can install this locally.
The Local WordPress Development course will help with the setup/general details involved.
Hope that helps
