Configuring Remote (WSL) Composer in PHPStorm

I'm trying to configure a PHPStorm project to utilize both remote PHP and a remote Composer. Remote being my Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) installation. However, when I initiate any Composer commands from PHPStorm, I get errors. And unfortunately, the errors are not very indicative of the cause or offer a link for additional details.

Errors received in my "Event Log":

12:21 PM    Composer
Failed to install packages for  ./composer.json.
Show in Log

And in my "Composer Log":

install --no-interaction --no-ansi
/bin/sh: 1: composer: not found
Failed to install packages for  ./composer.json.

So far, I've followed the instructions located at:

https://www.jetbrains.com/help/phpstorm/how-to-use-wsl-development-environment-in-product.html

https://www.jetbrains.com/help/phpstorm/configuring-remote-interpreters.html

I also followed the answer at this post to set WSL as my default terminal:

How to use WSL as default terminal in WebStorm or any other JetBrains' products?

In my WSL installation, composer is located at /home/<user>/.local/bin/composer and is included in my path upon login in my /home/<user>/.profile file. And I was sure to restart PHPStorm after doing so to ensure it has the updated path. Additionally, running composer install within my project, on WSL works without issue.

I'm not sure how to determine which terminal or composer file PHPStorm is using. Either it's still trying to find and use a composer on my host Windows install (which doesn't exist) or I'm missing a path which I have to map for WSL.

Any idea how I can obtain more details as to what I have misconfigured?

Confusion between commands.Bot and discord.Client | Which one should I use?

Whenever you look at YouTube tutorials or code from this website there is a real variation. Some developers use client = discord.Client(intents=intents) while the others use bot = commands.Bot(command_prefix="something", intents=intents) . Now I know slightly about the difference but I get errors from different places from my code when I use either of them and its confusing. Especially since there has a few changes over the years in discord.py it is hard to find the real difference. I tried sticking to discord.Client then I found that there are more features in commands.Bot . Then I found errors when using commands.Bot . An example of this is: When I try to use commands.Bot client = commands.Bot(command_prefix=">",intents=intents) async def load(): for filename in os.listdir("./Cogs"): if filename.endswith(".py"): client.load_extension(f"Cogs.{filename[:-3]}") The above doesnt giveany response from my Cogs ...

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? [closed]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? public fucntion __construct(Application $app, $Router $roouter) { } I have read the documentation and some online tutorial but I can find any clear explanation. I am learning Laravel and I am wondering where does this kernel constructor receives its arguments from. "POSTMOTERM" CLARIFICATION: Here is more clarity.I have checked the boostrap/app.php and it is only used for boostrapping the interfaces into the container class. What is not clear to me is where and how the Kernel class is instatiated and the arguments passed to the object calling the constructor.Something similar to; obj = new kernel(arg1,arg2) or, is the framework using some magic functions somewhere? Special gratitude to those who burn their eyeballs and brain cells on this trivia before it goes into a full blown menopause alias "MARKED AS DUPLICATE". To some of the itchy-finger keyboard warriors, a.k.a The mods,because I believe in th...
