Codelobster is a portable integrated development environment (IDE) primarily for PHP, which also supports HTML, CSS, and JavaScript development. [2] Plug-ins are available for Drupal, WordPress, Smarty, Joomla, JQuery, Facebook, Codeigniter, Yii, and CakePHP. [3]
Free registration by email is required after 30 days of use of the program, [4] and there are paid versions also ("Lite" and "Professional") for additional features. [5] The program is missing a help system as of its latest version. [6] There is also special "PHP edition" distro only for Windows, that was not updated since 2019.
The program features syntax highlighting and auto-completion for SQL, PHP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and XML, as well as automatic syntax checking. [2] There is an HTML and CSS inspector like Firebug. [7] It also includes Drupal support. All plugins are paid, but they offer trial periods of varying length. [6]
Since the activation servers have been shut down, it is no longer possible to activate the program to use the Pro features. Unfortunately, the developers did not provide an pre-activated version before discontinuing the product. There's also no official activation-patch available.
