Copy the downloaded x-debug file (php_xdebug-2.9.7-7.4-vc15-x86_64.dll) to the php\ext folder
Use Notepad to modify the php.ini file , add a few lines of configuration information at the end of the file, and save it.
[xdebug]zend_extension="D:/xampp/php/ext/php_xdebug-2.9.7-7.4-vc15-x86_64"//这个地址以及文件名一定要正确xdebug.remote_enable = 1xdebug.remote_autostart = 1

1. Click the extension bar, enter PHP, and select PHP Debug to install.
2. Click VSCode’s File-Preferences-Settings (different versions may display differently, pay attention to search for user settings), find php in the extension in the settings, click setting.json and add the following One-line configuration:
"php.validate.executablePath": "D:/xampp/php/php.exe",//地址是php.exe文件所在的位置
3. Configure the launch.json that Debug
will pop up by default, no need to change.
4. Then simply debug and verify whether the configuration is successful.
Note that you must open a folder to successfully set breakpoint debugging. A single file is invalid. You can choose D:/xampp/php/www
<?php $a = 'hello world';echo $a;?>
to set a breakpoint and then start debugging.
5. Open the php to be debugged in the browser (not the file path but the address of the server (http://localhost:3000/hello.php)), VSCode will hit the Breakpoint location.
