Open GitHub in IDE is a powerful Chrome extension designed to streamline your development process by opening GitHub file links directly in your preferred IDE.

This extension supports Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) on VS Code variants, enabling seamless navigation for developers using Ubuntu distributions. Whether you're reviewing code or debugging, this tool bridges the gap between browsing GitHub repositories and local development environments. Any issues or feature requests can be addressed through the GitHub repository, ensuring continuous improvement.

it works good, but it would be awesome to have multiple icons (chekbox for IDE settings instead of radio) so i can open something quick in Vscode, other things in webstorm, intellij idea, android studio depending on the project or file types etc.

Good extension, but unfortunately the PHPStorm button is displayed over the line number in a PR. I cannot share a permalink with this extension enbled. I'd prefer the button to be in the context menu.
