I use aptana radrails every now and then. Does anyone have experience with both and knows how they stack against each other?

- veidr 15y agoYes. RubyMine pretty much destroys Aptana's offering: better code insight and completion, more reliable debugging, deeper featureset, relatively faster, more stable, and a much faster rate of development and improvement with a much more responsive development team. Having said that, they both have the same fundamental drawback of being ginormous slow ugly least-common-UI-denominator Java-based frankenapplications. Still, I tend to start my Ruby coding tasks in a text editor, but move to RubyMine on anything where I'm hacking on it for more than a couple hours. I can't imagine using anything else to do Rails development with all the billions of files and open source gems involved in that king of thing--code insight and smart jumping around within the source saves so much time, cumulatively.
