I need to find something worth blogging about.

Ok so I setup a blog, mainly to test out some new software and a our new server. However, now that its up I feed like I should actually use it and try to right a daily blog. Hopefully, I can think of something worth writing about.

NetBeans Ruby Only IDE

Posted by Dan Baxter on April 21, 2007

NetBeans 6.0 is already becoming a great Ruby on Rails IDE. However, with all the extra Java stuff it can be a bit slow and cluttered if you only develop in Ruby. Tonight I discovered the NetBeans team has created a Ruby Only NetBeans IDE. The IDE comes pre-installed with all the Ruby on Rails stuff. The project looks rather new and still very beta. However, I actually found this version of NetBeans to be more stable then the bloated Java/Ruby NetBeans 6.0 builds. So give it a try and let me know you you think. Hopefully, the continue work on this project and release it as a actually product some day.
