I use Storm daily for PHP/Laravel, and hence have PHP configured. When I want to create a vanilla HTML / JS side project, Storm takes it upon itself to add the PHP libraries without asking. I don't want any PHP Libraries. When initially creating the project, I used "empty project".

Here is a screen shot to illustrate.

Project created for vanila HTML, JS, Vue

So, how to create an empty project without PHP libraries?

You are using PhpStorm, an IDE that supports PHP. That entry that you see there is a list of stubs for PHP (the stuff that IDE knows about core PHP and other common extensions: classes/functions/constants etc).

AFAIK it always will be there (as it's a PHP oriented IDE) and you cannot remove it. But you try this:

  • Settings (Preferences on macOS)
  • Languages & Frameworks | PHP
  • PHP Runtime tab
  • Uncheck ALL entries there.

If the above will not get rid of the whole node then you will have to ignore that entry. And I do not see any problems in having it here: it will not affect your JS/HTML in any way.

P.S. Whatever will be in a default/new project can be configured at File | New Projects Settings | Settings for New Projects...

Thanks ! I expected that much. To that end I considered down loading webstorm, but there is no community edit of such. No worries.
