This repository provides links to various PhpStorm resources, including the custom color scheme and code styles that I use.
Like everything in PhpStorm, the color scheme and visual styling of the IDE is completely customizable. Take the time to adjust the font type and size, line spacing, and color schemes. Remember, you work in this tool all day long. A poorly designed visual environment can lead to eye fatigue. Take the time to tweak it to a styling that appeals to you.
- My color scheme
- Dayle Rees' themes are an awesome resource to get you started:
To install a color scheme, go to Preferences > Editor > Color Scheme. Then click on the cog icon and select Import Scheme.
