Hi there

Try NetBeans 6.0. There is a special branch developed especially for
Ruby and Rails.
You can download it at http://deadlock.netbeans.org/hudson/job/ruby/
It has great code autocompletion and greatly supports Rails. Enjoy.

Best regards

Hi Tehseen

nbRubyIDE iscool but you should take a look at a faster IDE, ie
download Aptana RadRails :slight_smile:

hey Tehseen,

it would greatly depend on your needs, if all u need is a place to write
some code and get the color + syntax checks for ruby, you can download
relatively simple low-costing-memory editors (such as jedit)

http://rubyjedit.org/

i happened to use aptana’s radrails for a very short while, it kind of
clogged up my machine, and everything went a bit slower, but on the
other hand it has a lot of rails shortcuts and rails features.
i suppose choosing u’r editor depends on your needs; if ruby syntax /
coloring is a good enough start, i would recommend jedit.
