The PHP Scratchpad
Enjoy coding and debugging in an editor designed for fast feedback and quick iterations. It's like a shell for your application – but with multi-line editing, code completion, and more.
Framework wonders
Tinkerwell ships with drivers for all major frameworks and is extendable to support any PHP application.
The best-in-class autocompletion and editor experience
Tinkerwell provides an outstanding code completion experience that is optimized for Laravel
applications, but also works with all other frameworks.
Install the Laravel IDE helper in your application for best results.


Magic comments, automatic code coverage, inline-error messages, and more
Using a special comment syntax you can quickly dump out variables and perform method calls in the middle of a method chain to make debugging as easy as it gets.
