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

I would disagree with "PHP Storm" being "very expensive". You can buy yourself a licence for 9€ / month and use it for both personal projects and work. Considering the salary level for programmers, I wouldn't call 9€ per month for the main tool in doing your job (apart from the computer itself) expensive. As for the free IDEs, I like "Visual Studio Code" (available for Linux as well). From the bigger ones that I didn't see mentioned yet, there is also "Atom". But I didn't like it as it seemed somewhat slow to me.
