How to configure PHPStorm to work with OpenServer?

Question

PHP

Good day, I typed the code on PHPStorm 8, launched it in Firefox, and there Bad Gateway 502, looked at the setup tutorials, and here there were misunderstandings, for example, I write the same code in SublimeText2, turn on OpenServer, open a text file in Firefox and everything works, but here I can’t understand anything, some say install Yii Framework, xDebug, a lot of incomprehensible words, and I still don’t understand, OpenServer will become unnecessary after PHPStorm is configured correctly? and why is PHPSTorm asking the interpreter to specify ? for example, in VisualStudio it was built-in, and is a web server needed for PHPStorm at all? if so, is OpenServer suitable? and how to make them friends? in general, I ask for help with setting up PHPStorm, because I myself did not figure it out, and there are too many things that are incomprehensible to me, thank you in advance.

All! thanks, if someone looked, figured it out) in general, if the same newcomers run in, maybe someone will need it, in openserver I did this: settings-bookmarks-point to the phpstorm exe file, save and run phpstorm through opensever (a link to the phpstorm exe file will appear in bookmarks after restarting openserver), phpstorm, starting from under openserver, will automatically offer the php interpreter, which is already in the openserver kit (there is also a built-in xdebug), and that's it, after saving the file with php code, you need to run it in the browser and everything works, no bad gateway 502
