In my organization I am constantly doing development work in Visual Studio and PHP. While VS is an excellent product for Windows development, it only supports the Microsoft development languages and not PHP.
Well, the other day, I stumbled across VS.Php which integrates the PHP language inside the fantastic VS IDE. While you do not get 100%Â of the VSÂ features available when you are developing in PHP (it’s pretty close though), the real value is the single point of entry for both Windows and web development. If you are in the same boat as me, VS.Php is definitely worth a look.
If you do not have Visual Studio, you can download the standalone edition which is a PHP IDE in itself.
I usually do not post tips about non-free software, but for professional developers or ultra enthusiasts, this is really worth consideration.
