To install Xdebug on our Windows computer, we can use the installation wizard available on the Xdebug website at https://xdebug.org/wizard.
On the textarea we should paste the HTML source of phpinfo() or the CLI output of the php -i command.
Once we have pasted the output, and submitted it, there will be some instructions that we should follow to install it.
First, we download the php_xdebug.dll to our computer.
Next, we move the file to the ext folder next to our PHP installation.
Finally, we update the php.ini file to enable it. Below the zend_extension = opcache line we should add the following:
zend_extension=php_xdebug.dll
xdebug.mode=debug,develop,coverage
Now we have successfully installed Xdebug on our system.
