Cloud development like www.nitrous.io (previously action.io) is the future. I've played around with it am quite impressed. Basically no setup for standard platforms like rails and node - choose your dev environment, install your dependencies if not already there and get coding. It's a Linux environment so your dev is same or close to production. And the IDE is quite nice. Caveat: Yes, you have to have a connection. But, for those few precious unconnected moments, I don't want to be coding anyways.
