The differentiator is the console-based development flow and the REPL, which is not an afterthought but a prime feature. The REPL is basically your debugger.

Also, while the Ruby stdlib is not running on rubymotion, I see a chance for sharing Code between rubymotion/ruboto environments (ruboto is Jruby for Android).
- Arcanum-XIII 15y agoDoes the REPL work on the live application ? Otherwise I'm not sure it's that usefull — but I'm more of compiler/breakpoint guy at the moment so feel free to prove me wrong ! -- EDIT -- Ok, I've read the review from ArsTechnica, and yes you can do that. Now I'm curious to try it !
- jeremymcanally 15y agoYup it does. There's a screencast on the Pragmatic Bookshelf site that shows it off. You can change things live in the app (e.g., label text, state, whatever). It's incredibly cool.
- smartgoat 15y agoBut you can already do that in gdb and lldb.
