About

Effortless debugging, profiling, and tracing for your PHP projects: This extension is an indispensable companion for anyone working with Xdebug. It lets you quickly activate or deactivate debugging, profiling, or tracing functions—no more juggling POST/GET parameters or cookies.

Ideal for developers using tools like PHPStorm, Eclipse with PDT, Netbeans, MacGDBp, or any other Xdebug-compatible profiler such as KCacheGrind, WinCacheGrind, or Webgrind. By default, the extension’s icon appears on all webpages, but you can easily configure it in the settings panel to display only where you need it, keeping your browser interface clean.

Hotkeys:
- Ctrl+Shift+X (Cmd+Shift+X on Mac) opens the popup.
- Alt+Shift+X toggles the debugging state.
