Thank you for making this detailed comparison Zura. I agree that there are so many things that VSCode does very very well, however the Intellij editors is pretty much better in every sense and can justify its price. Because it saves a lot of time and ads a lot of confort, especially when refactoring the code, which is a huge thing we do every day. It has a price, but at what cost? VS code is free, but so is cycling to work, and it would be the same saying "you can ride bycicle to work for 40min instead of driving car for 10". For someone it makes sense, but it doesn't work equaly good for everybody.
I think Find & Replace is way much better in vscode. The preview before/after for a replacement is just awesome. I see the possibility of undo an excluded file from the replacement as the only really advantage of that feature in PS, but I really never needed that
Very in depth comparison altough I'm not sure it's fair. PHP storm is made specifically for php development, VS code is a more general purpose IDE. I like how versatile VS code is and I use it for python and C++ development. However PHP storm has spoiled me when it comes to it's autocompletion and I can't develop anything in PHP without it anymore... But that's just my opinion.
If you use so many programming languages, you'll do better with VS Code, but you can also pay for all Jetbrains products (lol). I use the combination of PhpStorm and VS Code because I primarily develop for the Web.
Many features listed in this video like Deployment or Sql client are used using 3rd party apps, some features mentioned here are not used by 90% of developers. PHP Storm is good - no doubts, but it depends on the ecosystem you're working with. I work with TALL stack, and PHP Storm has no idea about TailwindCSS classes, which VS code does. Also autocompleting of Whenever I need to do formatting on my blade template, it autocompletes all the classes. In the end PHP Storm has more advantages, but it all depends of your usage requirements.
As far as I know vscode autocompletes TailwindCSS only if the CSS file is included in project. And I am almost sure PHPStorm will do the same thing if you include TailwindCSS in PHPStorm project. PHPStorm has great support of Laravel and blade template. Maybe you just don't have PHPStorm properly configured.
I worked both PHP in Intellij Idea (PHP Plugin) and PHPStorm for many years. The two guys are the same. You can check to compare versions to see more details. But IntelliJ Idea is an IDE designed for large purposes (Support many development languages likes Java, PHP, Python,.....). It will be heavier than PHPStorm (In loading, plugin working, UI) if you are just a PHP Developer.
I see a huge misconception here in the comments. PHPStorm is an all purpose IDE for pretty much anything in the modern web development. It consists of WebStorm + PHP + DB +.... It is not solely made for PHP but works perfectly with JS etc as well. All the features are there 😍
Good subject, I am using VS CODE with all Php extensions. and I want to switch to Phpstorm, and I want to know if Phpstorm gives added values to Php developer
I like Phpstorm, but being retired and on a fixed income, I can't see paying 199 a year for it. I would like to see a community version like Pycharm has. Programming is a hobby for me.
the opening time I'm not sure how valuable that is. if you're working with it in your job, you open it in the morning and then most likely leave it open all day
If you are working on a single project and you open it in the morning then this is not going to be a problem. But if you have to switch between several projects during a day it might be a problem depending on your PC specs.
VSCode is not an IDE, it is just a text editor. Nobody promised it to be so great either. Yet, with proper configuration and extension, vscode is still really good.
VSCode is free, open source and allows you to work with any language you need: C, C++, C#, Java, Rust, PHP, Ruby and etc. If this things is important for you, then choose VSCode, in other cases PHPStorm is better.
is there a way to show the handy tooltip in vs code what php storm already has i mean at 12:18 u see him type: $pdo = new PDO('',''); in vs code but in php u will see something like this: $pdo = new PDO(dsn: "", username: ""); so is it possible to have the same in vs code? maybe i missed it and he did tell it in the video buts its hard to find when a video is 2 hours long
31:28 not showing an error is better in that case IMO, code should be tested so the error won't go unnoticed anyway, and php files should not contain editor specific settings Better to not show in a view, but better to show in sources 🤔
In inspection settings, you can enable or disable all errors, warnings, and weak warnings for all the supported languages. You can also change its severity and scope it is shown in if you want. Also in the inspections, you have support for Code Sniffer, Mess Detector, PHPStan, and Psalm. So it is not an on/off switch for the errors but full customization if you need one.
Where storm totally fails is closing tag highlighting when using Alternative Syntax, and if you code Wordpress themes you know about 95% of the time you are in Alt syntax. This one thing alone keeps me away from storm even though my work buys it for me.
@@shahinalam9903 You can configure PHPStorm's PHP interpreter, but I do not use it, I run my application either from localhost or from virtual hosts, or I use php built-in server, by running "php -S localhost:8080"
Seems that the author does not have that much of experience with vscode. There is better ways of a lot of things he said.(I agree that JetBrains IDEs are better, I migrated recently to xD)
phpstorm is targetting only php projects while if you use a combination of languages, vscode is better... If project is strictly in php, i vote phpstorm.
I partially agree PHPStrom has great support for frontend technologies like, HTML, CSS, SASS, JAVASCRIPT, VUE and so on... But if you need java or python phpstoem doea not aupport that
@@TheCodeholic Nonsense. PHPStorm is an IntelliJ editor - and there's a Python module which seamlessly allows that - a project can mix PHP and Python and it all works.
If you program in a lot of languages then the Jetbrains All Products license is fantastic. It includes PHPStorm and multiple other language support throuhg IntelliJ variants and plugins. It's excellent.
If you develop on PHP and if you are student try PHPStorm. It will be free for you. You can compare to VSCODE and if you don't like you will go back to VSCODE. But try it carefully.
@@siddheshb.kukade4685 PHPStorm inherits pretty much all of the features in Webstorm with its JS-focused IDE. So it can work with a very complex web project but additionally, it has syntax and file support for dozens of languages just like VS Code.

PHP is not outdated and won't be outdated for next several years... - PHP 8.0 will be released at 26th of November. - Laravel (PHP framework) is more popular than Django (Python or Flask which are python's most popular frameworks) or Express.js (node.js most popular framework). - About 70% of the whole websites are using PHP at some point...

I've been hearing that for years, have watched other languages that were suppose to replace PHP fall to the way side. PHP keeps being upgraded, with 8 just about out that are fixing the short falls.

Thanks spent 2 hours. love it.
55:09 now in vscode, we can switch terminals with one click and rename them as well.
You can use task runners for deployment in vscode
In PHPStorm as well

Sir I am using Sublime text for Coding
Is it better choice or should I have to switch to PHPStorm or VS ?
I have not worked in sublime in PHP, I think sublime and VsCode will be pretty mich similar, because both are editors. I recommend using PHPStorm.
@@TheCodeholic Ok got it
Thanks a lot
@@fahadmalik4869 VS Code is a great alternative for the slightly outdated Sublime Text. But for the PHP coding PhpStorm is better.

as the name says PHP storm so it means it's only focused on PHP, unlike VS Code which is a one-stop shop.
