![]() ![]() If speed is so important, why not use a text editor? An IDE comes with so much more extra power that I’m willing to trade some speed for functionality. Of all the IDEs I have tried this is the fastest. I wouldn’t call PHPStorm the perfect IDE, just the least bad one. Lichai Cohn chose PhpStorm: With an IDE there’s always the problem of speed vs functionality. When you only work in small projects, there’s no need to lug a behemoth such as PhpStorm around, even if it is multi-platform. I require something to be cross platform and lightweight. Jeremy Dove chose Sublime Text: I only build mostly small few page applications. It supports the most popular languages and adds more via plugins, and it doesn’t need a whole lot of setting up when configuring a machine from scratch. It loads in under a second, instantly reacts to commands, supports projects and has a rich plugin culture with a very vibrant community. Sublime Text is justifiably second – it’s free (in a WinRAR kind of way), multi platform, and blazing fast. Among the most popular arguments with the PhpStorm voters was the fact that it’s super fast considering its size, supports many languages and frameworks both out of the box and via plugins, and is true multi-platform, allowing you to share a single configuration file as easily as pointing to a cloud-hosted reference. ![]() Due to this plugin based nature, PhpStorm can support other languages just as easily, allowing you to develop NodeJS, Dart, Go and other language apps in the same environment – a priceless perk. PhpStorm is an offspring of IntelliJ IDEA, the Jetbrains Java IDE, and is basically a stripped down version with PHP support embedded. We’ve covered PhpStorm before, and it’s no surprise it won due to the strength of its community, but an advantage such as this one in a sample of over 4000 valid responses was certainly not expected. In both Personal and Business choice, PhpStorm comes in at first place, Sublime Text is second, and Netbeans third. ![]()
