PHPanywhere – Online PHP editor
Posted on 09. Sep, 2009 by Nikhil Sheth in Website
There is a plethora of different PHP Integrated Development Environments (IDEs) available for the developer, with many of them available for free, but not many of them address one issue–the ability to access and use your choice of IDE when you do not have access to the application on your local machine.
PHPanywhere is not just a stand-alone IDE, it’s designed with project collaboration in mind. With a built-in FTP client and syntax editor built right in, it makes this tool uniquely appropriate for developer teams as well as individual programmers. Best of all, it works directly in your web browser!
The Syntax Code editor features, among other enhancements:
- color coded syntax highlighting
- code indention
- find and replace
- “smart indentation” for each language used within the file
- undo/redo
- unlimited tabs so you can have multiple files open at the same time
- line numbers
- code auto completion
PHPanywhere is currently available for Opera 9+, Firefox, Camino, Seamonky and MSIE 8, with additional browser support coming soon!
It’s free, it’s browser-based, can be used anywhere you have internet access using a password protected browser session, and includes project collaboration features. Give it a try and you’ll soon find yourself adding this tool to your developer toolbox!
