PhpStorm For Linux

JetBrains products have a reputation for being very good value for money, despite what might be considered by many a somewhat steep price.

PhpStorm is the company's ultra-fast, and very smart PHP IDE, designed to make the lives of PHP programmers as easy as possible.

There are many advantages provided by PhpStorm, but one of the most noteworthy is the fact that it guides you through almost the whole programming process.

For instance, thanks to its intelligent coding engine, your project is analyzed hundreds of times even as you type. Thanks to features such as PHPDoc support, code formatter, and arranger, as well as various quick-fixes hints, PhpStorm helps you write code in a cleaner and faster manner.

Just like all JetBrains products, PhpStorm also makes it incredibly easy for you to navigate across your projects. You can perform a plethora of searches and apply various useful filters (Classes, Files, Symbols, and Actions).

PhpStorm is designed to work with Symfony, WordPress, Zend Framework, Magento, Joomla!, CakePHP, Yii, Drupal, and Laravel right out the box.

You're also provided with features such as code completion, easy refactoring, on-the-fly error prevention, and handling. The refactoring engine is capable of making project-wide changes with just a few mouse clicks. You can perform a wide range of refactoring actions such as rename, move, delete, extract method, inline variable, push members up, pull members down, and change signature.

PhpStorm is also regarded as one of the best PHP editors out there because it includes support for various front-end technologies such as HTML 5, CSS, Sass, Less, Stylus, CoffeeScript, Emmet, JavaScript. It also has various developer tools built-in such as integration with some of the most popular VCSs, support for remote deployment, databases/SQL, a couple of command-line tools, Docker, Composer, REST client, and many others.

To conclude, PhpStorm is a flexible, yet feature-packed PHP IDE that works for a wide range of codebases. It has the distinct JetBrains stylish GUI, as well as all the required tools to make it worthy of your attention.
