Hi,
I would like to know what software is better for WordPress Theme development?
I use atom.io but… phpstorm is better? or what should I use?

Hey!
I tried Brackets, but Atom is much more stable. I used to use Sublime Text 3, but it doesn’t have as much updates as Atom or Brackets. They are always improving.

I would like to know what plugins will help in my WP development.
Do you know any article about this?

I use netbeans and visual studio code.

Hello,
Thanks for your answer. But why do you use it?

Netbeans for autocompletion of wp functions and its ablity to scan all functions which are within the project. Altough many softwares do provide the feature. I am used to it.

Visual studio code has emmet built in so makes prototyping quicker.

The main reason for using them is because they are in my workflow or say habit. :smile:

PhpStorm all the way

I prefer Sublime Text 3
its light, less use of RAM, fast and flexible,
