since you are new, you are confusing what ruby is and what rails is, you may need an ide for ruby, but not for rails and since rails is ruby is "killer app", almost no one uses an IDE and since the demand is low so is the offer. The thing is rails( which is a web application development framework, while ruby is a programming language) comes with everything you need independent of any ide, so you dont need any IDE, rials kind of is the IDE. Rails can do everything with its commands/scripts, and you dont need and ide for that, just the console/shell, also an ide will give you a file browser but rails already has everything organize , the only reason for using an ide is when you want code completion, but since ruby is dynamic ( you can modify classes during run time) is very hard to implement code completion effectively, and on top of that, the structure of rails is so clean, you wont really need any code completion since you will have instant feedback since the code does not need to "compile". Use a simple text editor that, has a file browser, like textmate, ultra edit or gedit (with plugin), use the console for command and code generators, and refresh your browser for instant feedback. Good luck. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

the main reason is with ruby and ruby on rails, we don''t need an ide to start and complete our applications. the second reason is what we need is simply auto complete, auto indentation, file formatting, being able to trace methods, etc and one can all of these by plugins for vim, emacs, gedit, etc. On Apr 10, 1:22 pm, hoboy Hoboy <li...-fsXkhYbjdPsEEoCn2XhGlw@public.gmane.org> wrote:> I have been struggling learning RoR ,one of the problems I have faced is > the ide, I just can not find a good and ide, yes RubyMine is great but > as I am still learning it I don''t want to invest on ide yet,is there a > free ide ?. > I am bough linux and windows user. > All suggestions are welcomed. > > -- > Posted viahttp://www.ruby-forum.com/.-- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

mengu you are saying what I have been looking for, the auto completion in the edi,well netbeans has stoped supporting RoR in their future edi.Aptana 3 I could not make the auto completion work properly. So I am looking at Geany, Jedit, Gedit, but one has to know witch plugin to use and how to install them. I am an experienced java and .Net developer but I am a bit surprised by the struggled I am having to learn RoR. -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

It is true that you have to rely more on the documentation and sometimes think more but IMO it actually is a boon to do this in terms of learning things well.> > -- > Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group. > To post to this group, send email to rubyonrails-talk-/JYPxA39Uh5TLH3MbocFF+G/Ez6ZCGd0@public.gmane.org > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > rubyonrails-talk+unsubscribe-/JYPxA39Uh5TLH3MbocFF+G/Ez6ZCGd0@public.gmane.org > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/rubyonrails-talk?hl=en. > >-- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
