Answer 1

If you don't use Xamp.

1. Download windows binary corresponding your php version: https://xdebug.org/download
2. (optional) move downloaded file (php_xdebug.......dll in common location and rename it: for example xdebug.dll in C:\phpextensions\
3. Run php --ini in cmd to know where is the php.ini file (p.ex: C:\php\php.ini)
4. Edit C:\phpextensions\xdebug.dll and add following line:

zend_extension = C:\globally\debug.dll
xdebug.remote_enable = 1
xdebug.remote_handler = dbgp
xdebug.remote_host = localhost
xdebug.remote_autostart = 1
xdebug.remote_port = 9000
xdebug.show_local_vars = 1
