Issues

On Windows, PHP might not be recognized as an internal or external command.

For this, you need to set PHP to your PATH environmental variable at:

• (enter this in the address bar at WLK+E) Control Panel\System and Security\System
  • Advanced system settings.

But, it's probably easier to install XAMPP, which should take care of this for you.

Be sure to restart VScode when you're done setting the PATH variable.
