This isn't really a Magento-related question but I am happy to answer it.
Step Into means that you will follow the code execution into the next function to fire.
Step Out is exactly the opposite. If you don't feel the need to go line by line through the function that you are currently exploring, it will execute the remainder of that code without stopping unless you have a breakpoint set somewhere.
I made a tutorials series on youtube about how to use xDebug & PhpStorm together.
There are 7 total videos in the series. PHPStorm / xDebug

Wow, thanks, i'm gonna watch that videos. I was put an breakpoint but then i dont see any diffrence between step out and step in. They come in the same function which i put the breakpoint in.– fuduCommented Aug 3, 2018 at 2:25

Theres a button called step over. Instead of stopping at one breaking point and then jumping to the next break point, you can step down over each individual line of code, one at a time. xdebug is awesome! Commented Aug 3, 2018 at 2:26

By stepping through code, you’ll rapidly advance your learning of the Magento architecture. Xdebug is essential. Commented Aug 3, 2018 at 2:34
