PHP Not Found In VScode

PHP is a popular scripting language for web development, but it is not natively supported in Visual Studio Code. However, there are ways to get around this limitation, and use VScode for your PHP development with the help of extensions.

The most popular way to get PHP working in VScode is to install the PHP Intelephense extension. This extension adds PHP language support, debugging, and auto-complete functionality to VScode. To install the extension, open the command palette in VScode, and type “ext install PHP Intelephense”. Once the extension is installed, you should be able to open and edit PHP files in VScode.

The second option is to install the PHP Debug extension, which adds debugging and auto-complete functionality for PHP. To install the extension, open the command palette in VScode, and type “ext install PHP Debug”. Once the extension is installed, you should be able to debug and auto-complete your PHP code in VScode.

The third option is to use a third-party plugin, such as the PHP Tools for VScode extension. This extension adds PHP language support, debugging, and auto-complete functionality to VScode. To install the extension, open the command palette in VScode, and type “ext install PHP Tools for VScode”. Once the extension is installed, you should be able to open and edit PHP files in VScode.

Finally, if you’re using a version of VScode that doesn’t include the PHP language support, you can always install a separate PHP editor, such as Atom or Sublime Text, to edit your PHP files. All of these editors have plugins that add support for debugging and auto-completion for PHP.

// Example code for debugging PHP in VScode

$my_var = 'Hello World!';
echo $my_var;

By following these steps, you should be able to get PHP working in VScode, and be able to develop your PHP applications with the help of the powerful features offered by VScode.
