PhpStorm

PhpStorm: A well-rounded IDE for HTML, JavaScript and PHP

PhpStorm is a comprehensive Integrated Development Environment based on IntelliJ IDEA platform that offers developers a large collection of tools for editing HTML, CSS, PHP, JavaScript and XML files.

With PhpStorm you can create and edit source code for any programming language. It has all essential features you’d expect like code completion, breakpoints, bookmarks and so on. Nevertheless, there are other handy features bundled in PhpStorm like code analysis, macros and quick navigation, all of which are sure to speed up your work.

At first run, you can either open an existing project or create a new one. In the Project section you can open any new files, directories, PHP and HTML files as well as XSLT stylesheets. Then you can insert your scripts and compile them in the new tab that opens up.

Advanced tools enable developers to view their projects from several perspectives, but also offer common development tasks such as source code search, running, debugging, project management and the list goes on.

Thanks to its straightforward interface with neatly organized menus, the application lets you easily navigate to classes, lines, symbols, and custom regions from the related menu. Also, in the ‚Run’ menu you can run scripts almost instantly but also edit the Run/Debug configurations.
