PhpStorm is one of the best IDE's for PHP available. It comes with a ton of features to make developing with PHP as easy as possible. But it is also this amount of possibilities that make it sometimes difficult to know what you want to use and where to find it.

Here comes the best feature of PhpStorm into play: Everything is customizable! Let's start with a fresh PhpStorm install and set it up together. We will make the theme look stunning and configure our Laravel application for testing, debugging, and your daily work with Laravel.

On the way, we will come across a lot of helpful little tips and tricks that you might not know yet. This talk will give you a crash course on how to use PhpStorm and what it has to offer for working with Laravel. Even if you're already working with it for a long time, you will get away with new learnings to improve your setup. Your IDE is one of your most essential tools. Let's master it!
