PhpStorm is perfect for working with Symfony, Laravel, Drupal, WordPress, Zend Framework, Magento, Joomla!, CakePHP, Yii, and other frameworks. The editor actually 'gets' your code and deeply understands its structure, supporting all the PHP language features for modern and legacy projects. It provides the best code completion, refactorings, on-the-fly error prevention, and more.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Clean and customizable interface. Multiple themes and color schemes for personal preference. Simple yet powerful layout for managing files, tools, and navigation. Support for multiple project views and easy file navigation.
  • - The auto-suggestion feature is quite accurate and comes very handy while coding on a big project. - The color themes can be easily customizable according to the user preference. - It supports Git and version control. - It in built assistance feature helps in highlighting errors and give suggestions in real-time.
  • Debugging from browser. Decent support, responsive and to the point. Some search features are good once you learn to use them.
  • Php lacks many advanced IDE like other popular languages but PhpStorm definitely fills the void. It supports all major frameworks and features intelligent autocomplete that understands your code. It has built in developer tools and database support for even most advanced php development. It is also quite affordable for enterprise development.
  • Easy to use & user friendly interface. Autocomplete feature. In-app terminal & ssh support. Supports front end HTML , CSS & JS files. Tons of customization options. Add-ons to support different PHP frameworks.

Cons

  • The sheer number of features and options might overwhelm new users. Some UI elements may seem cluttered when working with larger projects, but this can be customized.
  • - The code initialization and debugging takes a lot of time. - It can be sluggish sometimes when compiling a large code base.
  • A lot. I've thought I'd switch over from phpEd, but honestly, the time I'm spending on trying to figure out how to disable these annoying automatic things, and the amount of time I'm spending communicating with the support is insane. I've easily lost days worth of work-time already. It does a lot of things to "help"; but they don't help but hinder. Some of it can be disabled, some can not. But even those that can be disabled; good luck finding these. Also the key shortcuts are rather weird so plenty of time to reconfigure those. The lack of ability to fold comments only, or open to methods only; no helping this. Then there's the error highlighting; it highlights essentially whole files, just because it just cannot figure out either the smarty syntax(!), or the code structure. There are plenty more, I'm not going to bother to detail it all out. There are things that are in the dev queue for many years now, some would help - but it seems these will never get done.
  • Unlike other tools from Jetbrains it has no Community edition, so beginners or individual users might consider that as a big con.
  • Expensive yearly price. Resource Intensive - takes long time to load.

  • - PyCharm is a simple and intuitive IDE for python development which supports various plugins and extension for additional features. - There is an in-built terminal, so the developer doesn't have to use an additional terminal, which in overall saves a lot of time when working on big projects. - Syntax highlighting, debugging and suggestions feature works seamlessly every time. - Even though it is especially crafted for python development, it also works like a charm with other programming languages.
  • - It is the best IDE to code on python. - The features are optimized and function every time. - The debugging features comes very handy in finding errors. - It can easily be used for developing big python projects or just to practice programming. - The community version, free to use.

Cons

  • 1. The syntax errors do not get stated clearly in the debug console.
  • - The startup is slow when opening a recent worked file. - Paid version is not affordable for most beginners.
  • 1. It takes a lot of system space during installation and consumes RAM while running.
  • - The startup of the application consumes a lot of system resources and takes more time at startup than other IDEs. - It is a bit expensive IDE for fresher developers who want to use it commercially.
