6/22/2023 0 Comments Phpstorm live edit![]() I couldn’t choose to install what I wanted, what I needed. However I never used the composer tools / terminal / git GUI / database interface thingy integrated in PhpStorm. I know a lot of shortcuts and I am able to navigates in the panels without even using the mouse. PhpStorm doesn’t really give you many choices: it is a bunch of tools and you have to stick with them. It should give you the choice for you to do what you want, the way you want. Therefore your IDE should reflect the way you are coding. It simplifies our lives, automatize all these boring stuff you repeat over and over again. It’s the tool which helps us doing what we like: coding. Who’s in Charge: You or Your IDE?Īn IDE is obviously very important for developers. ![]() I won’t cover here how to do a PHP IDE out of Vim since I wrote another article on the topic. Do you want to replace PhpStorm with something more powerful and versatile? Do you want to be sure that Vim is the good choice? Here we are finally: the comparison between PhpStorm and Vim. At first, I just wanted to use it for editing configuration or text files, not for actually coding, too afraid that it would put down my productivity. More and more, I asked tips to my tandem in order to learn how to use The Beast. ![]() Due to the pleasure I had with my new typing techniques, I slowly decided to give Vim a chance. I knew as well that Vim was designed for this type of typing. You feel definitely faster and more in control of your computer. Quickly I began to understand the power of this typing method. I wanted to use typists techniques: using the home row keys and my ten fingers. I wanted at the same moment to get rid of my very bad habit of typing with two or three fingers. Moreover, I wanted to learn a maximum from my fellow work tandem before leaving for new and crazy adventures. My decision opened new horizons and a true desire to learn more about everything. I wasn’t happy at that time, till I decided to quit the company I was working for.
