  • 41: Themes
    We stare at our editor for most of our work day and sometimes even after
    that. So it is really important that the theme of the editor is not only
    visually pleasing but also provides good readability. There are a very
    large number of code highlighting themes available for the JetBrains IDE's,
    but so far I have not been able to find many themes that consider the
    entire IDE and all its components.
    Material Theme UI for Jetbrains (https://github.com/ChrisRM/material-theme-jetbrains) by
    Chris Magnussen (https://twitter.com/crmag) is so far the only one that I
    have found aside from the built-in light and dark themes.

  • 39: Code Inspections - Customizing Mess Detector rules
    Creating a custom Mess Detector rule is not necessarily a PhpStorm specific
    issue, but since I talked about how to configure MD as a code inspection
    and customizing a rule was actually not straight forward I thought I would explain how to
    customize properties of existing rules.

  • 38: Scratches

    or a Scratch Buffer.

  • 37: Code Style - Configuration
    In episode 34 (https://www.briefs.fm/phpstorm-briefs/34) I introduced the
    Code Sniffer tool that can warn you about code style violations as you
    type. But there is also a built-in tool that lets you reformat your code
    after it is written to a particular style. In this episode I talk about how
    to configure PhpStorm to reformat your code to a particular style.
    Also applies to: WebStorm
    Key mappings
    OSX:
    - Open Code Style Preferences: Shift + Command + A + "Code Style"
    - Reformat Code: Command + Alt + L
    Win/Linux:
    - Open Code Style Preferences: Shift + Ctrl + A + "Code Style"
    - Reformat Code: Ctrl + Alt + L (Conflicts with Lock screen on Ubuntu)
    Thank you @recchiapiero (https://twitter.com/recchiapiero) for pointing out the key mapping conflict on Ubuntu!
