How to set up Apache, MySQL Servers (Ubuntu 12.04 LST)

How to set up Apache, MySQL Servers (Ubuntu 12.04 LST)

I am hoping to get guidance on using Apache and MySQL servers on Ubuntu
12.04. I am new to Linux, and am trying to setup a "Localhost" dynamic for
basic website design.
In windows - I had used a simple free utiliy called XAMPP which installed
Apache, MySQL, and a Localhost folder for my wesite work to reside. Though
basic, this XAMPP install worked pretty good for my needs. Is there some
stable utility in the Ubuntu depositories that will give me Apache and
MySQL servers with a" htdocs(localhost)" folder where I can put websites
that are under construction - (something similar to XAMPP) ? If not -
instruction on how to manually configure this dynamic would be much
appreciated.
Also, would welcome suggestions as to which is better. Thanks.
