Several people recommended VSCode so decided to give it a try. I found this guide which describes very well what you need to do to get VSCode working for a php-src project hosted in a docker container. Works brilliantly, I am able to work with the code in the container using all VSCode features, including debugging with GDB. Nice! https://bogomolov.tech/php-extension-development/ Cheers Carlos
