Best IDE for debugging and Code Completion in CakePHP

I am new to CakePHP framework. Does anybody have any experience with a free IDE for Uuntu which can perform code completion and most importantly ability to debug CakePHP code?

Any responses would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I suggest to try Codelobster PHP Edition

It has free debugger and special plug-in for CakePHP autocompletion.

Sublime Text 3 is the best one in my opinion. I have used PhpStorm, Komodo, Aptana Studio 3, Notepad++ and others. All are good IDEs. But Sublime Text is giving me auto complete for CakePHP and other features too. Try it out. You will like it.

I would use Netbeans, and I mean, I do use Netbeans. It can intelligently work across inherited classes so works very well against CakePHP.

Updated:

In addition, now IDE has got a plugin for CakePHP

See http://mark-story.com/posts/view/code-completion-for-cakephp-in-eclipse

Netbeans works well for PHP in general, you will get full code completion in Controllers, but couldn't get proper completion in Views to work. Same in Eclipse, however no code formatting for PHP is pretty n00by.

Debugging PHP generally sucks, I mostly use $this-log().
