Re: IDE/editor for newbie PHP programmer. my choice

I've used Notepad ++ when it came out and still use it for certain things but switched to Eclipse a few years back due to some better integrations and recently took a month trial in PHP Storm and ended up going with that and so far its been great. I still use Notepad ++ for a number of things but am glad I am on PHP Storm. But again it is a personal preference my experience with Eclipse was one of frustration with its setup and its unpolished features, I know others who swear by it rather than swear about it.
