I wonder why is not so popular... i use NetBeans for years and as i can see this is very good and powerful IDE from free IDE.

You can work with html/js/css/php and more plugins not only for wordpress but many other cms and cmf... Also its easy to work with git.

At leas for windows its very good IDE imo.

Now vscode as its also free IDE take his good positions, but i dont think i will chose only one IDE to work with.

Thank you for this interesting article!
