For beginners I always recommend XAMPP which works for any OS pretty much. It installs all stuff you need. Otherwise I would go with Apatche, Jboss.

Then using Samba map a drive letter on your Windows machine. You can then use your Windows based IDE/editor and when you save it will be saved to the Linux server.

A fully featured web server with plenty of horsepower, yet frugal enough with system resources that it will run alongside your other apps with ease. The only con: a bit tricky to configure if you are not comfortable with the command-line or a text editor. Good old Apache does the trick for me.
