To create a facebook application  http://www.londatiga.net/it/how-to-create-facebook-application-with-php-for-beginner/ , you need a real domain for Canvas URL. For that reasons  I have faced a real trouble to develop Facebook application . I have to change the code on the local machine, uploading them to the server, testing it out in a browser and repeating the process until finish the application. So Even a little change i have to do all  above the process . So i am  looking  for the best way to set up facebook development Environment in local to avoid all irritating process  .And finally i found out of box solution at the leevio . Here i describe the out of box solution  .
