Ask HN: Created a PHP Debugger. Would you use it?
Here's a screenshot of the work so far: http://imgur.com/hP9pF bare in mind that this is still a work in progress and I have yet to finish some features and interface design.
What it currently does:
- You can use it by just enter "xdebug_break()" in your code. It will automatically get your source code and stack, and u are ready to go.
- OR you can just Set/remove breakpoints like a regular debugger
- Change variables at runtime
- Eval
- File map to your local folders in case you don't want it to download the remote source code
- Editor with themes
So what do you think guys ? Is this something you would like to use instead of an IDE debugger ? I know this is just a screenshot but it's no ready for sale yet.
I'm expecting to have RC by the end of the month, with a new polished layout (working on it atm) and bug free.
I also need some beta testers in case anyone is interested. I will offer a free license when V1 is released to anyone who helped me out.

[ 4.4 ms ] story [ 32.7 ms ] threadThe available tools for the mac don't work well enough for for a reason or another and I created this as a personal tool, but it started to grow into something that I can show and let other use it. Hopefully :)
Edit: or a site I can bookmark? Is this going to be a paid product? Still interested!
