How are the fonts with Ubuntu (Linux)? Last time I used it a year ago they were terrible.

I think they look good, I've been looking at them for hundreds of hours without complaining. Screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/sPmh5qd.png

That's fugly, not looking good.

You can make java programs like all JetBrains IDEs use the OS native font rendering, just add the following snippet to /etc/profile.d/jre.sh and source or relogin to take effect.

export _JAVA_OPTIONS='-Dawt.useSystemAAFontSettings=on -Dswing.aatext=true'

I've been using PhpStorm for a few years now. After going through several time-wasting periods of trying out every IDE I could get my hands on to see what I liked, I ended up and have stayed with PhpStorm because it is hands down the most feature-full, fast, stable and up-to-date IDE for PHP (and HTML/JS!) development. It also does not hurt that they're going on a Vagrant rampage and have been showing off my app, htt…

First time I see this tool. Looks really sweet! Only things that are missing for my usage is ppa:ondrej/php5 for latest php and Percona instead of MySQL with an option to push in custom my.cnf from within configuring a vm, if that's possible.

I've started using WebStorm for the last 6 months... it's sick for anything js/node/coffee/mv*. Also started messing with RubyMine. It's nice to have all your keyboard shortcuts standardized across IDE's.

Wait till you try intellij idea: java, php, ruby, python, go, js, node, coffee, etc all in one.

We are continuously working on improving it and fonts are indeed better now, however, there are a lot of things we can't do something about because of JDK for Linux.

There are some links and information on additional configuration for Linux to be checked at http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-57233

If you choose Ubuntu and 5.4/5.5 you're going to use Ondrej's repo.

The problem with that is that Ondrej's 5.5 repo comes with Apache 2.4+ and the Apache Puppet module I'm using only supports up to Apache 2.2 - so Ubuntu + Apache + PHP 5.5 will not work right now, but Nginx will.

Or use Debian.

Sounds good in my case, because I use php-fpm with nginx anyways! Great work. By using MySQL usage for dev is pretty much the same as with Percona, it would've been nicer though to have Percona (or MariaDB if other people use that) instead of actual MySQL though, because you never know if there will be some incompatibility issues.
