Ever review a pull request in your editor?

The GitHub user interface for reviewing pull requests is pretty good, and new features are added all the time. But did you know that you can review pull requests right inside PHPStorm?

Why use PHPStorm for pull request review?

GitHub's UI has some basic PHP syntax highlighting, but your editor goes a step further. It can show you if a variable or imported namespace is unused. You'll be able to see warnings about potential sources of bugs, like == vs === comparison operators. And you can easily navigate into a class or method using familiar shortcuts.

If this has made you curious, check out PHPStorm's documentation on the feature. And if you don't use PHPStorm, there's a good chance your editor of choice might have a similar Github integration too.
