When you work with code that is deeply nested, it might get hard to know in what context the code is. You should follow good practices and not to create such a code, but sometimes the code is not yours or you are refactoring an old one. In such cases bracket, pair colorization comes in handy. Each bracket pair gets a different color, so you will have an easier job to orient yourself.
PHP Tools for VS Code extension keeps growing, and we're happy we can show off a lot of useful new improvements. Recently, we have added support for the new Laravel framework and annotations that Laravel uses, support for generics through DocComment @template tag, redesigned the PHPUnit integration, and more.
VS Code allows you to work remotely with the full-featured development environment. Even though you work remotely, you don't need to sacrifice all the great features available when you work locally - full Intellisense, navigation, refactoring, debugging and testing.
When I started to learn PHP years ago, I came across comments. What a controversial subject! Some programmers tend to comment their code, some don’t. Looking for answers, I went to the Internet to find a never-ending discussion on the topic:
The June 2022 relese of PHP Tools, the version 1.66, has been released. It brings the great Code Lens adornments into the PHP editor, the support for Eloquent local scopes to the PHP IntelliSense, improved inferring of generic types using class-string<T> annotation, and more!
Welcome to the May 2022 update of PHP Tools for Visual Studio. The release v1.65 introduces IntelliSense improvements, enhanced generics support, and mostly the new Debug Inlines and other editor neat improvements.
Newly, the Visual Studio Code allows to install a pre-release version of extensions (see code.visualstudio.com - updates). It's a great feature for both the extension authors and the users. In result, users can try out new things faster, and extension developers can provide their new features to users who are interested.
For custom software development, the Laravel framework is quite popular. It is the most popular PHP framework on Github, with over 56,000 developers worldwide appreciating its powerful features. Why is Laravel so well-liked? It provides the necessary tools to develop websites and web apps faster, more stable, and simple to maintain.
