How to open a project in Phpstorm on ubuntu?

Question

ubuntu

Goodnight. I switched from Windows to Linux in order to poke the terminal, try it in action. Installed nginx + php5-fpm and configured under laravel. In general, this is the situation. At the moment, using composer, I downloaded laravel to /var/www/domain and installed it. Everything is working. Downloaded phpstorm , launched it via phpstorm.sh. The IDE is up and running. The question itself. How do I open the /var/www/domain project? In fact, as I understand it, you can’t work with these folders. they are protected. When I open it, the inscription "unable to save settings phpstorm" appears in the corner and a lock icon appears next to folders and files. The files are not edited and the project is not saved. How to proceed in this case?

Answer 1

Make files available to all users
