Fedora includes apache. If you don't have it already, just:

But if you are going to run this for serious production, I'd use RHEL or
CentOS instead of fedora so you don't have to do frequent OS version
updates with the associated stability risks.

setting up a webserver and want to learn how. From the ground up.
If you really want 'ground up', grab the source from www.apache.org and
compile it. I don't recommend that these days since the packaged version
is fine and there are plenty of higher-level content managers and
add-ons that can suck up all your time. What you should learn, though,
is what you can do in /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and the pieces that get
included from /etc/httpd/conf.d/.
