It works ! Follow the steps, and wait for the .vscode foder to be created under the folder of your .php file. Thanks

si no os funciona, las lineas del minuto 5:30, poner estas:
xdebug.mode = debug
xdebug.start_with_request = yes
xdebug.client_port = 9000

que dice en la descripcion de la extension que son para la version 3

I've done as you said.
One problem: project not loading in browser. It keeps on loading.
I missed something?

FYI: I was getting a '"spawn php ENOENT..."' error when I first tried debugging. The solution for me was to add the following to my environment path:
C:\xampp\PHP
Otherwise, great tutorial!
