PLUGINS
SYMFONY PHP COMBO
Symfony 2 plugin
Awesome plugin with too many things to details here, a must have !
\0/ and fixed for PhpStorm 2016.1
PHP Annotation
Bring completion
to all annotation stuff !
PHP Toolbox
Great plugin adding even more completion (play well with the symfony plugin)
Adds code completion, inspections and more to composer.json file.
Simply put your .editorconfig file(s) in place according to the instructions at editorconfig.org site, and the plugin will enforce them.
EditorConfig settings will silently override the normal settings configured in the IDE for all files controlled by EditorConfig.
That is, if your IDE's settings say to use 4-space indents in Java files, but your EditorConfig settings enforce 2-space indents in all the files under the "src" directory, then hitting tab will insert 2 spaces on Java files in "src", but 4 spaces in all other Java files in the project.

Some useful snippets for lazyness
Bootstrap 3 live templates / snippets

Great command to learn when you start to use PhpStorm
This shortcut is great because you search across files, classes, commands, symbols etc

... IT COMES with a serious performance cost
SO IF YOU HAVE SLOW MACHINE OR ARE A LITTLE BIT PERFECTIONIST

PRODUCTIVITY
MARKING DIRECTORY
An important thing to learn is marking directory in PhpStorm AT LEAST :
(Right click on a folder)
Excluded : exclude the directory from parsing, in symfony project for example exclude the cache and logs folder
Resource Root : tell PhpStorm where he can find resources ( / ), for example you have multiple warnings in your css because PhpStorm can't find all images resources, mark the web directory of your symfony project as a Resource Root, now PhpStorm will find and correctly assist you. (same thing for, for example, a project with a funky setup on twig template)
QUICK FIXES
ALT + ENTER
