If you are a programmer which needs to write a lot of source code and you only have Windows installed without any additional applications, you will find that the default text editors included in this operating system are not optimal and efficient when it comes to writing code. In this situation, you should rather turn to phpDesigner, a Windows program which offers support for the most popular programming languages, allowing you to efficiently write your desired source code.
When running the software, you should first select the desired programming language from the left part of the interface. According to this choice, a new file with the corresponding extension will be created. For example, if you choose the PHP language, a new PHP file will be created. At this point, you can start writing the code and take advantage of the syntax highlighting feature, which automatically assigns different colors according to the type of function used.
This feature helps you quickly spot syntax errors and find specific functions without even using the search option. Speaking about searching, phpDesigner includes a lot of options for finding any portion of text inside a source code file. What's more, you can replace words or phrases with others. For debugging, you can add several way points to your programming project, which enables you to efficiently find programming errors. After the code has been written, you can either save it as a local file or upload it to a FTP server of your choice. Still, for this to work, you will first need to configure FTP server settings.
Pros
It supports the most popular programming languages. What's more, it supports syntax highlighting. Furthermore, you can quickly find any word or phrase using the complex search feature. Moreover, source code files can be uploaded through FTP.
Cons
The menu system may seem a bit too complex at first. You can efficiently write any kind of programming code with the help of phpDesigner.
