PHPDevShell is at an important moment of its history. A major rewrite is under way, which will focus on its primary goals: simplicity and performance.
After almost 10 years of existence, many little compromises lead to the need of a major cleaning. That means some things have to be broken and some projects may need tuning. A new 4.0 branch was started as a complete rewrite to include new technologies. Unfortunately, the task was too big and went dead. Meanwhile, the 3.x branch evolved very slowly, but is still under development, even if no official releases were made.
Even today, many projects are powered by this development version.
Try it and see if it fits your needs!
