We’ve been trying out a Windows based PHP IDE called “Codelobster PHP Edition”. It’s early days, but it looks really good, with a host of features, such as debugging, that would make developing PHP websites a breeze.
You can do as I did downloading and finding out more information from this online link.
PHP is definitely “not an island” so Codelobster also has plug-ins for Magento, Laravel, CakePHP, Phalcon, Joomla, Drupal, WordPress, Symfony, Yii development and many other PHP frameworks.
We’ve put together a “stream of consciousness” PDF presentation showing the installation, and showing a recent PHP sun_information.php (live run) “project” of ours being looked after by the Codelobster IDE.
