Ingo Steinke, web developer

I use alternative setups, depending on the project, team, and situation. VSCode (or Codium) is lightweight, still quite powerful, but on my default machine, I use PhpStorm with plugins like PHP Annotations, Shopware, Shopware 6 Toolbox, SonarLint, Symfony Support, many other intergrations for static analysis and code completion are already integrated. My hardware is a Linux Laptop with Ubuntu Budgie, but I also used Linux Mint and a MacBook. I have an external monitor that I can connect if I really need more screen space, but despite focusing on frontend web development, I'm mostly content with my laptop screen.
