Developing with php should feel fast. I feel like phpstorm slows me down. I like sublime, it opens the last project in .5 seconds. For me ctrl-p start typing is usually quicker than scrolling down a tree structure.
I want to use phpStorm daily again but it gives me zend eclipse flashbacks. I wish they offered a light verson.
- luckylion 6y agoYou might be having a different usage pattern than me. I typically work on only a few projects in a day, and I have those open in parallel and switch between windows. It's a shared process, so they're not each taking up resources (I wish that was changeable, since they've had and continue to have some annoying bugs around it).

- katbyte 6y agoLoads faster then vscode for me - the only real hinderance I find is it expects a “project” and isn’t very good at “I just want to edit this one file”
