jeff_valken Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I've done some PHP work in the past, but nothing that's been really BEEFY. I've just been put in charge of a large, corporate site that was developed in PHP. It has a full store front and such. What I need is, someone to guide me in the right direction when it comes to dev tools or editors. I see there are several of them out there, some free, some not. I don't have a problem spending the money, but I want to know that I'm getting something I can use. I.e. auto complete and delimiter features and such. Any and all insight would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 I don't think there's any need to go spending money to be honest! Eclipse I've started using recently for a few smaller things and found it pretty good - though I don't think it would run perfect on a slower machine. Notepad++ is a popular one as well, but a bit feature lacking I find. There's literally tonnes out there, perhaps best just trying a few and going with the one you like the most. I don't know what kind of setup they/you have, but if they have SSH access to the server I would definitely use bash for all or most of your activities (including uploading files to the server, modifying, moving, searching, changing permissions, committing to a repository, etc. etc. etc. etc.) - you can do everything that way all from within one terminal if you so wish (but it's easier to have several open). It's a steep learning curve but definitely worth it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
