Visual Studio Code

Visual Studio Code is a free cross-platform IDE built on open source with a diverse plugin ecosystem that can be used for MediaWiki Development.

The Wikibase team at Wikimedia Deutschland is currently trialling its use as an IDE and this page serves as the documentation of that effort (hoping it will be useful or others).

IntelliJ IDEA Keybindings
Highly recommended if you are coming from PhpStorm or IntelijJ.

Php Debug
Debug support for PHP with XDebug

For use with mediawiki-docker-dev you'll need to update the Xdebug config section in your launch.json to look something like the below (with added pathMappings) If you run MediaWiki in an environment with a different path, you may need to alter this.
