How to use PHPStorm IDE for free?
PHPStorm - is a powerful IDE (Integrated Development Environment) from JetBrains used to develop web applications, including support for PHP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript and more. It offers a wide range of features such as code auto-completion, error checking, code debugging and much more.
You can download PHPStorm from the JetBrains official website.
PHPStorm cost
PHPStorm is a paid product ($249.00/year), but JetBrains offers a 30-day free trial. After the trial period ends, you will need to purchase a license to continue using PHPStorm.
You can evaluate PHPStorm for free for 30 days. To start a trial period, select the Start trial option in the Licenses dialog that opens when you start PHPStorm.
If you are already using ToolBox to install JetBrains products and are already logged in, PHPStorm will automatically log you into your JetBrains account.
If you use two-factor authentication for your JetBrains account, you can specify an app-generated password instead of your primary account password.
After the trial period ends, you will need to purchase and register a license to continue using PHPStorm. A new trial period will be available for the next version of PHPStorm.
Use of temporary email
To activate the PHPStorm trial license, you need to register on the JetBrains website using email. But if you use your permanent email (for example, in Gmail, Yahoo, Bing or other large services), then you can use only one trial period of 30 days, and then you will have to register a new email again. In order not to do this, you can use temporary email services, such as:
- https://temp-mail.org/
- https://temp-mail.io/
- https://tempmailo.com/
- https://etempmail.net/
- https://tempail.com/
- https://dropmail.me/
- https://www.mohmal.com/
and others...
After the trial period ends, you can create a new account with a new temporary email and continue using PHPStorm for free. This approach allows you to use PHPStorm for life, constantly registering with new temporary emails. Simply re-register on the JetBrains website with the new email you want to use for registration, activate the new license and continue using PHPStorm for the next 30 days. Then you can repeat this procedure in the future and use PHPStorm forever without any functional limitation!
WARNING! This way of using PHPStorm is recommended only for those who really cannot afford to purchase a paid license to use this software product. Anyone who can buy PHPStorm can do so and use PHPStorm without any restrictions.
