How can I set a development environment for PHP on my Ubuntu (latest version) Virtual Machine? I'm going to install XAMPP (MySQL, PHP, Apache) and use that as a starting point.My intention is to eventually use a PHP framework like Kohana once I finish learning the basics. Can these XAMPP and Kohana be installed side by side? I'm used to installing XAMPP on Windows by clicking next next next; what is the best way to install and set up the dev environment on Linux?What software can I use to program in PHP/Html/CSS on Linux? I'm coming from a Visual Studio background so intellisense would be VERY welcome.
