    I have used notepad, notepad++ and dreamweaver at different times, but I think Engineers who regularly write PHP Code use different and better editors.

    Which one is the best and why?

    Eclipse is the best, it has all the functionality that you expect in an ideal IDE

    I haven't yet used an IDE for PHP editing, but Notepad++ works awesomely for me in all web related development.

    How much an IDE would be advantageous over proper use of Notepad++, you have to see for yourself!

    In Npp, you have the simplicity and better intimacy with your code 😀

    yeah , but for large project consisting of over 50000 files then you have to use IDE , otherwise I too prefer NPP

    I have used both Notepad++ and Eclipse for php. I guess Notepad++ is good enough for our work.

    I vote for <a href="https://www.codelobster.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">CodeLobster - Free portable PHP IDE with support Drupal, Smarty, Twig, WordPress, Joomla, JQuery, CodeIgniter, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, AngularJS, CakePHP, Facebook, Laravel, Phalcon, Symfony, Yii</a>
    It is best free PHP IDE 😀

    I would personally recommend two:
    1. Microsoft Expression Web for its good support for syntax highlighting and code completion.
    2. Netbeans for syntax highlighting and code completion, and also hot-linking the calls to the declaration / definition.

    That's okay... You know what? Netbeans IDE 7.0.1 has code lookup and more features... It is awesome, you should try! 😀

    Friends, every software brand is well aware of the product which it designs. However it the person who codes and is comfortable with the particular tool.
    At initial stages, using Dreamweaver would be a difficult task, but later on it produces very productive results.
    For best performance and ease of use, use Adobe Dreamweaver CS5.

    I would doubt for the performance in CS5, if you don't have at least i3! 😔

    For a light weight app jEdit is a notable😨 one, but it needs the love of Java👎 to run. PhpStorm and NetBeans were also good to go with IDE's👍 , I think so.

    For basic PHP stuff, notepad and notepad++ work the best.
