  • Absolutely Essential | Makes Me Actually Enjoy Debugging PHP

    For so long I have been trying to figure out a way to debug my PHP in WordPress similar to how the JS console works (being able to drill down into objects and arrays). I have no idea how much work Tonya put into this, but I am forever indebted! Thank you so much! I wish i could send you a gift basket or make a donation.

  • Makes debugging super easy

    Makes debugging super easy, particularly for people like me—just starting out in WordPress development. Turn it on, and immediately the errors become apparent.
