I recently got a Mac, and I was curious what people tools people use
for php development.

Thanks,
Jason

Pretty much all the IDEs come on Mac flavors. Netbeans for me.

Transmit by panic.com is a fantastic Mac FTP/WebDAV client.

I am a recent convert to SublimeText2 and love it http://www.sublimetext.com/2

If I may be so bold, VirtualHostX is a great compliment to MAMP and Apple's built-in Apache server.

I use coda by panic as an IDE. Moving to vim though, slowly. I run a VM with Ubuntu and my Lamp stack for local testing. MAMP doesn't support 5.4 if I remember correctly. Apples built in stuff is great but not ballsy enough to screw with the actual OS so that's why I run a VM.

Oh, iTerm is better than the built in terminal app.

I would definately check out homebrew, http://mxcl.github.com/homebrew/  It will allow you to build and install self-contained packages like mysql or even php itself.  (I have found it very useful with PECL)

You _do_ need to download XCode from the mac app store to use it, but beyond that, it has been extremely time saving.

If you use the command line at all, let me add a quick shout out for Oh-My-ZShell.

I don't use much of its advanced functions, but even the simple stuff you get from zsh over bash makes it worth it for me.

The quick one-liner install is in the README here:




My tools (mentioned by others):

SublimeText
iTerm2
HomeBrew

I have to reiterate that Oh-My-ZShell is pretty awesome.

I blogged about my tools here:

I like Linkinus a lot. I use irssi's proxy to serve as an IRC bouncer. I leave it running in a tmux session on an t1.micro EC2 instance, and then I connect to all my IRC networks/channels through it using Linkinus.
