Tinkerwell

About

Tinkerwell is a PHP scratchpad for coding and debugging with fast feedback. It works like a shell for your application, but adds multi-line editing and code completion. You can evaluate any code in your application, open local projects, and connect to remote servers via SSH. It also evaluates code in Laravel Vapor, Docker, and Kubernetes containers. It ships with drivers for major frameworks and can be extended to support any PHP application.

The app helps you inspect results and track your work. It shows SQL queries executed in the background, and it displays output in individual cards. Tinkerwell detects the output type, showing emails as HTML previews, searchable tables, and object graphs with relations. You can access the history of your code executions and save and reuse code snippets in your projects.

Tinkerwell is built for quick iteration, such as running Eloquent queries on a production environment or dispatching jobs and working with APIs. You can do this within the editor without reloading your browser. The website describes it as a perfect IDE companion for Laravel developers, with options for other frameworks too.
