![]() The ability to see the schema, the content, and execute queries within the context of its simplified interface makes it really easy to manipulate data during development. When it comes to managing my databases, I’ve become fonder of Coda 2’s MySQL frontend – at least for local development. In those cases, I opt to use Transmit (which is also by the same developers as Coda 2). To meet that need, I’m using MacGDBp until I can land on another all IDE that I like (or until Coda introduces it).Īlthough I try to stay within Coda 2 as much as possible, there are still times that its FTP client is limiting. The weakest point, by far, is lack of a built-in debugger. On top of that, I usually use the built in FTP client and database frontend so everything is managed from within a single window. When it comes to Mac and web application development, Coda 2 is my IDE of choice (and the latest version is leaps and bounds better than the first version). ![]() Like any piece of software, it has its shortcomings, but I’ve never used any other IDE that I liked as much. NET and Visual Studio is arguably the most powerful IDE I’ve ever used. IDEįor several years, I worked primarily in. It’s ability to manage dynamic DNS, various hostnames, and postfix makes working with a variety of projects much easier and making sure the development, staging, and production environments are as similar as possible. The Pro version is worth the cost as it pays for itself in the features that it offers. MAMP Pro is my favorite application for setting up and managing Apache, PHP, and MySQL. When it comes to my devices – this machine included – I like to keep nothing more than the tools that I need installed, so I’ve only got a few applications installed all of which help me handle my day-to-day tasks. When I’m at home, it’s connected a 20″ external monitor, an external Apple wireless keyboard, and an external trackpad. For the most part, this machine travels with me anywhere that I’ll be working. My primary machine is a Mid-2012 13″ MacBook Air. Since blogging is just as much for the readers as it is for the author, I thought I’d take some time to share what tools I use on a daily basis. Consider this a comprehensive list of tools in a WordPress Developer Toolbox. Because of that, I’m more likely to share what I like rather than what I suggest. Instead, I think that out of all the tools that we have from which to choose, we’re naturally going to like some rather than others – there’s not always going to be a general consensus. You’ll rarely hear me saying that I think any given developer should be using any given piece of software. Periodically, I’ll get emails or comments asking about the various tools that I use in my workflow. This post was last updated on January 10, 2014. ![]() I update this post as my workflow changes.
