# PHP DevTools Console

## Summary

PHP DevTools Console is a new Chrome extension designed specifically for PHP developers, especially those working with Laravel. Created by Tony Lea, the extension integrates Spatie's Laravel Web Tinker package into the browser's dev tools. This allows developers to access PHP and Laravel Artisan Tinker console capabilities seamlessly within the browser. The extension is recommended for development use only and should not be used in production environments.
