It is a good product and superior to NetBeans in many ways. The price was a little on the higher side though (but worth it anyways). If it comes down, I expect RubyMine to become the de-facto IDE for Ruby/Rails.
- sigzero 16y agoFor open source projects it is "free" and $69 for a one developer license. That isn't too bad. I use PyCharm and it is pretty good and the Jetbrains team is always responsive to my questions.
- jpcx01 16y agoYep, I think consolidation in the Ruby IDE space will be a good thing. All the super elite people are using VIM / Emacs, and all the lazy people like me are still using Textmate. If RubyMine can develop a decent size community around it (with plugins, snippets, colors, etc), I'd definitely use it. They really have to speed it up though. Feels like slogging through mud when compared to TextMate. Not sure if its possible given their java codebase.
