Hello,
When downloading the filezilla software, should we download the filezilla client or filezilla server? (when doing the 5 minute wordpress installation).
I'm guessing that since we're going to be uploading wordpress files to server, I should be using the ftp-client. Can someone please confirm this for me.
Thanks!

Client: Transfer files from/to servers.
What you are doing with wordpress is building it on a mamp or sitcom server so won't need the filezilla server. but would need the filezilla client to transfer your project onto a server. hope that helps
