ah blooming heck haha i would seriously recommend Visual Studio code, as it has its own built in terminal, no extension needed. Best thing about it, it works really well with PHP to, this is what I use in work :)

you can install extensions for it to work with PHP, but do make sure it is Visual Studio Code text editor.

there are quite a few, but you'll need php intellisense, this has a pop up with suggestions for which function in php you are trying to use.

brackets Pair coloring, this is another useful one, colourises each bracket to tell you where the other closeses.

if you need any debugging stuff then xdebugger is another good tool to add as an extension.
