Uh hello guys, welcome to this video. So
0:02
in this video, I'll show you how to
0:03
integrate the PHP
0:06
interisense and autocomplete in your VS
0:08
code editor. So if you want if you are a
0:12
PHP developer inside PH uh inside VS
0:15
code, you should have this extension
0:17
installed. It's called as PHP
0:21
intellisense.
0:22
So it will give you autocomplete and
0:24
intellisense for all the PHP methods out
0:27
there. This is the name of the
0:29
extension.
0:31
It's not the official extension but this
0:33
developed by this person. It's got
0:36
almost 6 million installs. So first of
0:40
all just uh click on the install button
0:42
to install this extension. As soon as
0:45
you install this
0:47
now you will get the autocomplete and
0:50
intellisense inside your PHP file. So
0:52
let me open a simple PHP file.
0:56
So
0:59
now we will get all these autocompletes.
1:01
As you can see, if you have a third
1:03
party PHP function, you will get all
1:06
these autocomplete suggestions.
1:09
IntelliSense,
1:11
this makes your life way more easier
1:14
because you can't remember all the PHP
1:16
method names. So this extension will
1:18
save you a lot of time. It will show you
1:21
these suggestions
1:23
like this. You can see that
1:26
all these methods name which will be
1:29
there for you.
1:35
So you should have this extension
1:37
installed. If you are a PHP developer,
1:39
simply install and activate this and
1:42
then it will give you all these
1:43
suggestions that right here
1:47
alongside with the print statement as
1:49
well. You can see that print f
1:53
print r all these different
1:57
versions of the same method but it will
1:59
give you all these suggestions and here
2:01
you can actually
2:03
boost your PHP productivity and also
2:07
incre decrease the time in which you
2:09
write your PHP code. So without this
2:12
extension, let me show you what this
2:14
happened. If I disable this extension
2:17
and just try to write this code. So you
2:21
will actually see how difficult is it.
2:23
It is no longer showing me the
2:25
suggestions. You'll see that.
2:32
So this extension actually solves a lot
2:36
of problem issues. So if you have the
2:40
basic PHP extension which comes if I
2:43
show you
2:53
so you should definitely have this
2:55
extension PHP intellisense. Click on the
2:57
install button. So this will basically
3:00
add the basic in intellisense which are
3:03
required.
3:09
