I've just started back with PHP as well, and nice things I've seen that didn't exist when I last did PHP in 2006 are:
Composer - a dependency manager that's a lot like Bundler.
Pimple - a dependency injection framework.
Klein - a routing library that's much nicer than handling routes in Apache or working with requests directly.
As for an editor, I've just been using Eclipse with the PHP development tools. I'm sure there is a better tool out there, this was just the first thing I grabbed.
- atox 12y agoIf you're gonna use an IDE then certainly check out phpStorm. I'm a big fan of vim but testing phpStorm made me doubt my ways.
- kysol 12y agophpStorm and some of the other JetBrains tools are nice, clunky (on lower end machines) but nice.
- aaqureshi 12y agoPhpstorm is highly recommended for larger projects.
- amerkhalid 12y agoAnother great IDE is PHPEd. Its is Windows only but I love its debugging and profiling capabilities.
