it's my favorite text editor one of the best on the market can connect to a database and connect throw sftp or ftp to the server. I find it useful. But isn't free and it's pretty expensive for what it is.

Clever code completion analyses existing code to suggest new code. Color coding is powerful on a per-language basis. I use a very custom theme where colors ranges are limited to language; PHP is green, JS is purple and so on, so I can instantly see which language I am dealing with. Most standard themes look like partially digested M&M vomited out. PHP storm is the best at achieving that goal. Very clever at detecting embedded SQL too. Grammar and code-style checking is extensive, useful and...

What is PhpStorm?
Smart PHP Code Editor
The editor that actually 'gets' your code and deeply understands its structure, supporting all PHP language features for modern and legacy projects. Provides the best code completion, refactorings, on-the-fly error prevention, and more.
Code Quality Analysis
Hundreds of inspections take care of verifying your code as you type, analyzing the whole project. PHPDoc support, code (re)arranger and formatter, quick-fixes, and other features help you write neat code that’s easy to support.
Development Environment
Perform many routine tasks right from the IDE, thanks to Version Control Systems integration, support for remote deployment, databases/SQL, command-line tools, Vagrant, Composer, REST Client, and many other tools.
HTML/CSS/JavaScript Editor
All the cutting edge front-end technologies are included, such as HTML5, CSS, Sass, Less, Stylus, CoffeeScript, TypeScript, Emmet, and JavaScript, with refactorings, debugging and unit testing. Live Edit let you see changes instantly in the browser.
Debugging and Testing
Zero-configuration debugging makes it really easy to debug and profile your PHP applications with either Xdebug or Zend Debugger. PHPUnit and Behat support lets you develop and run tests right from the IDE.
Cross-platform Experience
Use the same frequently-updated and fully customizable PHP integrated development environment on Windows, Mac OS X or Linux with your single license key. Enjoy the performance and stability!








Comments and Reviews
Never been more satisfied with an IDE (same goes for all JetBrains products).
Really great integration with toolings (especially webpack, aliases, etc...)
Very slow IDE! And until now all updates makes it slower.

AKA: are you using a computer from 2002 with 1 GB ram ? or a 2014 i7 cpu with 8GB ram and 5 security tools running together... or maybe a 2016 i7 cpu, 24GB ram, and a primed/optimized system.
Or maybe you're using a netbook ? ...

Grammar and code-style checking is extensive, useful and configurable. Error checking is excellent which saves on testing time. Definitely the best PHP/JS/SQL IDE I have ever used.
If there is one IDE in the world that served PHP Developers very well, it is PHPStorm
It has so many features that now i can't change it to anything. so good for it!! and well it makes me more productive
Nice program but only for one reason I can't use it: can not save a SINGLE modified file. "Save AS" and "Save All" are the only option?!?
It's sad that people can't do much for themselves... like find info in 2 seconds via searching. https://blog.jetbrains.com/phpstorm/2009/10/do-not-bother-saving-files-anymore/
