Switching to Aptana Studio

My IDE of choice has been RadRails 0.7.2 until now. I just switched over to Aptana Studio 1.1. Aptana has taken over the development of RadRails as Aptana Studio so I highly recommend the switch especially since Aptana Studio will be maintained and enhanced but not RadRails. For those of you with RadRails, you will like the “Check for Aptana Studio updates now…” action, something that wasn’t working for RadRails.

The first thing I did was to install the Subclipse Subversion plugin, enter the authentication credentials and I have access to my project. Next thing I did was set Aptana default workspace to my existing workspace and it imported all the settings.

Note that I am on Windows, hence why I am not using textmate. IMO, Aptana Studio is the best RoR IDE for Windows and free to boot. Enjoy!
