Debugging With PhpStorm And Xdebug

on YouTube ↗52m

" summary

Live demo installs Xdebug 3 and connects it to PhpStorm (port 9003) using the browser Xdebug Helper extension then shows breakpoint, conditional breakpoint, watches and expression evaluation on a small blog app. A real setup failure (web server using PHP 7.4 while CLI had PHP 8) gets diagnosed and fixed. The bug fix is concrete: a field name typo (visibility vs hidden) removed the extra post without changing code.
