If you are using the local development server, add a host parameter and set it to 0.0.0.0 like below:

php spark serve --host 0.0.0.0

This will bind the service on all interfaces on the local machine so another device can access it, provided your firewall is disabled or allows ingress traffic to the port being listened to.

Yes you can access your server from other machine. In that case two issue is possible.

  1. If you just need to access from local network.
  2. If you need to access from internet i.e. from anywhere on earth.

for 2 you would have to have real(public) IP address.

for 1: you can access only from local network. Local ip address is enough.

in both case you need to make a small change in httpd.conf file.

 #your root directory address in full 
<Directory "C:/Program Files/*/www">
 Order allow, deny
 Allow from all
</Directory>

Note: After changing, you need to restart your Apache server. then you can access from outside your own machine.There is lot of answers on visiting sites on local.

Try following,

Step 1: Add IP as Listner to httpd.conf file of your Apache server

Listen 80 
Listen [your IP here]:80

Step 2: Find the following code 

<Directory "cgi-bin">
    AllowOverride None
    Options None
    Order allow,deny
    Deny from all
</Directory>

and replace above code with following lines 

<Directory "cgi-bin">
    AllowOverride None
    Options None
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>

Thats all you need to do if you want to access site over local network.
