We need 3 softwares to run and test our php code in our system

So let’s download and install these softwares on our system.
1. Code Editor
There are many code editors you can use (like sublime text, notepad++, Atom, etc) but we use VS Code, it’s a free, light weight and easy to use code editor with tons of useful features. So download and Install VS Code from the following link
