Tips

  • PhpStorm is built on the IntelliJ platform; most shortcuts match WebStorm and IDEA.
  • Cmd+N generates code: choose constructor, getter/setter, PHPDoc, etc. - faster than writing by hand.
  • The Laravel Plugin provides quick jumps for routes, views, and controllers.
  • Database tools connect directly to MySQL and PostgreSQL without switching to Navicat.
  • After configuring Xdebug, Ctrl+D starts debugging; F7/F8 step through PHP code.
  • Cmd+Option+L reformats code; you can configure PSR-1/PSR-2/PSR-12 in settings.
