I've been battling to get PHP CodeSniffer to work on VSCode, always unable to locate phpcs, which i've installed globally. Adding the executable path to phpcs errors with:
failed to open stream: No such file of directory in /cygdrive/c/Users/{Username}/local_sites/{site_name}/public/c:\cygwin64\home\{username}\.composer\vendor\squizlabs\php_codesniffer\bin\phpcs which is a concatenation of my local web server home directory and the executable path.
I think I need to use a symlink, but I'm unsure.
