As long as the editor doesn't actually have code completion and code folding it's not an IDE. I was very enthusiastic when I first heard about Bespin but after installing the thing locally I saw it's basically just a syntax highlight layer.
I would love to see a true browser-based IDE but Bespin isn't that just yet. I see how it works for a CMS but it won't replace NetBeans or Eclipse very soon.
- STHayden 16y agoI don't there is a reason to loose enthusiasm. I've talked with the bespin team and they know they have along way to go. Just because it's not feature complete doesn't mean it sucks. It seems like they have built a strong base. Some cool projects have adopted it. And it seems like in a year or two it might even have a really strong feature set. So I'm excited even if I don't use it much currently.
