You might have heard that for the last two years we have been developing Ruby plugin for our award-winning Java IDE,
IntelliJ IDEA (its major release is just few days away, btw!)
Support of the Ruby community, which has highly anticipated the plugin quality and
its feature set, combined with the intensive efforts of JetBrains Ruby team, have inspired us to create the
dedicated Ruby IDE - RubyMine.
RubyMine is based on the years-proven IntelliJ IDEA platform that JetBrains has been developing for over than
eight years, gathering feedback from worldwide development community and implementing the features that help
developers being more effective and productive.
RubyMine is the full-fledged Ruby and Ruby on Rails IDE, equipped with specific tools for
Ruby on Rails web developers: Rails generators integration, smart Ruby, HTML, CSS and JavaScript editor with
completion, on-the-fly inspections, quick-fixes and advanced code analysis. integration with popular VCS
(Git, Subversion, Perforce, etc.), Ruby debugger and unit testing support.
Currently we're releasing RubyMine as Public Preview. Version 1.0 is scheduled for Q1, 2009.
Stay tuned for the new articles on this blog - we'll be covering various RubyMine features, release
announcements and many things you will definitely find worth reading.
