This is exactly where MS4W shines: it includes Apache, MapServer, GDAL,
all of the scripting plugins (for PHP, Python, etc.), but most
importantly it includes 60+ working example configuration files
("mapfiles") for connecting to your data, including a working
OpenLayers3 mapfile. Check it out at http://ms4w.com

hello OSGeo,
I am helping some friends migrate their work to a real GIS (from a hodgepodge
of AutoCad and MS-Excel spreadsheets). Unfortunately, for me, they use Windows
(the last time I used Windows was 1997). I will try and convince them to start
using some kind of Linux, at least for their geospatial needs, but assuming I
can’t, what is the easiest way to get them started with web mapping?
Fwiw, I am installing PostGIS for them and outfitting them with QGIS. So, the
desktop/datastore part is covered. But I don’t have time to build a full
fledged Leaflet app. Is there something I can install on a Windows machine that
will read data from PostGIS and serve it on the web, and allow some level of
customization of the interface?
(Sadly, I don’t even know what version of Windows they are using, but I recall
it had a lot of bouncy windows so it must be one of the newer versions.)
Many thanks in advance,
