PhpStorm is designed for developers who use PHP or PHP-based solutions to develop web applications or CLI scripts. It is suitable for backend, frontend, and full-stack work.
Open-source application development solution that helps with the development of desktop, mobile, and web applications using code editing, debugging, etc.
It's super easy to search for files and the autocomplete works like a charm while coding.
Whenever you are going to click on a scroll and move it mostly clicked on the yellow bar and moves us to a specific point.it must be not there because of its collapse scroll and waring bars.
Best user friendly environment for development also predefined color for different code improve code visibility. Easy debugging and deployment easy pull and push of project repository.
It starts to be a bit buggy and sluggish when using for a long time or with larger projects.
JetBrains products are amazing, and this is the best php IDE out there. It has so many smart features and it is also able to be highly customized to the specific needs and style of the programmer.
This software was able to improve productivity. There are warning if you're using deprecated code, and we can avoid using it because of this warning.
What I liked most about this software is its intelligent coding assistance which has saved me hours of programming in the time I've been using it.
My working life would be somewhat miserable without it.
Overall NetBeans is a one of the best solution for java developing. NetBeans interface is easy to understand therefor it is a good choice for a beginner too.
It's not the easiest software to use at times. Some of the error outputs can get confusing with just the sheer number of messages it gives.
It supports more than one language. More inbuild functions help us to write perfect and clean code.
But many functionalities and newer design elements lack. And there was no many major upgrade that completely changed core of product.
This is a great free IDE which has great community support. It works great with WAMP on windows, and the debugger is easy to use.
Unfortunately the changeover to Apache foundation seemed to break something. Now I've been unable to use it proficiently.
Its easy to use and integrate with other software. Its also free for students and has amazing prices for enterprises.
Also, as the users community is smaller, you will find less forums to support you in case of problems.
