I am using DataGrip from JetBrains, you can use any client. I also recommend Valentina DB.

Composer is the package manager for PHP and we will use it to install and manage our PHP dependencies. Download: https://getcomposer.org/download/

Note: we will go through the installation process in the workshop

I recommend using Git BASH to run commands and to navigate between files. It gives better developer experience than Windows CMD or PowerShell. Download link: https://git-scm.com/downloads
