Free PHP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript/TypeScript editor — CodeLobster IDE

In this article, we suggest you get acquainted with the free editor of web languages — CodeLobster IDE. It is presented on the software market for a long time already, and it wins a lot of fans.

CodeLobster IDE

CodeLobster IDE allows you to edit PHP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and TypeScript files, it highlights the syntax and gives hints for tags, functions, and their parameters. This editor easily deals with those files that contain mixed content.

If you insert PHP code in your HTML template, then the editor correctly highlights both HTML tags and PHP functions. The same applies to CSS and JavaScript/TypeScript code, which is contained in HTML files.

The program includes an auto-completion function, which greatly speeds up the programmer’s work and eliminates the possibility of errors.

It is one of the great tool for Managed IT support for faster resolution.

CodeLobster IDE provides contextual help on all supported programming languages, it uses the most up-to-date documentation at this moment, downloading it from official sites. So we can quickly get a description of any HTML tag, CSS attribute, PHP, or JavaScript/TypeScript function by pressing the F1 key.

The built-in PHP debugger allows you to execute PHP scripts step by step, sequentially moving through the lines of code. You can assign checkpoints, view the process of the work of loops, and monitor the values of all variables during the execution of the script.

Useful functions and features of the IDE:

• A pair highlighting of parentheses and tags — you will never have to count parentheses or quotation marks, the editor will take care of it.
• Highlighting of blocks, selection and collapsing of code snippets, bookmarks to facilitate navigation on the edited file, recognition and building of the complete structure of PHP projects — these functions ensure easy work with projects of any scale.
• Support for 17 user interface languages, among them English, German, Russian, Spanish, French and others.
• The program works on the following operation systems: Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 10, Mac OS, Linux, Ubuntu, Fedora, Debian.

The professional version of CodeLobster IDE provides the programmer with even more features.

For example, you have an opportunity to work with projects on a remote server with use of the built-in FTP client. You can edit the selected files, preview the results and then synchronize the changes with the files on the hosting.

In addition, the professional version includes an extensive set of plug-ins:

• Fully implemented support for JavaScript (and TypeScript) libraries, such as jQuery, Node.js, AngularJS, AngularTS, BackboneJS, EmberJS, VueJS and MeteorJS.
