1) PHPStorm with XDebug:
PHPStorm is my favorite IDE. It is an advanced IDE for PHP developers.
Many developers still use only var_dump and die to debug the system. From my experience, these techniques are not powerful. They possibility will break the application.
Magento 2 is a huge system. We should try with XDebug. With XDebug, we can see how the system works, why the exception occurs.
2) PHPStorm plugins for Magento 2 development:
There are some useful PHPStorm plugins. I used two free Plugins: Magento2 and MaGinto.
There is a good paid Plugin: Magicento. You also can try.

I love PHP Inspections, probably the best plugin out there for PHPStorm.
Here are my top 5 plugins for PHPStorm:
PHP Inspections (EA Extended)
Framework Support Plugin (Symfony)
Key Promoter X
PHPUnit Enhancement
JetBrains Toolbox App
I've made a video showing the possibilities of each plugin: https://youtu.be/h18-RtRqHZY
