Has strong general refactoring tools which are one of the best I found

Makes it easy to navigate code Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RubyMine?

It is not as felxible as vim.

Also, it feels a little cramped, but that's what you get with an IDE vs text editor.

I also think the package manager in sublime is more straightforward than the plugins in RubyMine. The way that RubyMine manages open tabs at the too of the screen is a little annoying - they can scroll left to right. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Ruby Mine REVIEW IT Development Software"
What do you like best about RubyMine?

I changed from sublime to RubyMine a month prior as I began another activity (they were at that point utilizing it). I have unquestionably not aced it yet, but rather I do truly welcome various highlights. Proviso - this is my first genuine programming work and my first IDE. The venture is a reasonably measured Rails and Precise task with Cucumber, RSpec, and Jasmine tests. I think my most loved piece of having the RubyMine IDE is the test incorporation. I think that its a lot simpler and faster to investigate tests when I can navigate each falling flat test, take a gander at the call stack, and bounce straightforwardly to the record I need with a single tick. At that point I can undoubtedly re-run just the tests that have fizzled without working through the direction line to determine precisely which ones I need running.

I also really like the git integration. I can click the "changes" window to get an overview of the files I've changed, and committing and pushing is a breeze. I never did use the GitHub GUI though, so maybe this isn't an improvement over that.

There are a couple little things I like that might be possible in sublime but aren't on by default. When you close a folder structure (say app/assets/javascript/controllers for angular) when you re-open it all of the child folders are closed. This helps me not have a mess of folders open on the left side over time. I also like the icons based on the file type. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RubyMine?

RubyMine feels somewhat confined, in any event for me, however that is the thing that you get with an IDE versus content manager. I additionally think the bundle supervisor in grand is more direct than the modules in RubyMine. The manner in which that RubyMine oversees open tabs at the highest point of the screen is a bit of irritating - they can scroll left to right and I am simply not a fan. Sorry for the fairly continuous flow musings. By and large they're both strong choices, yet I'm content with RubyMine for my little to the moderate-sized undertaking.

"RubyMine is fantastic but a bit slow"
What do you like best about RubyMine?

What I like the most is the code optimization that RubyMine performs on the code. Coming from a non-Ruby background, I am not used to the Ruby style of coding. Especially the use of clauses like unless, if conditions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RubyMine?

Rubymine doesn't seem as powerful as other Jetbrain IDEs like PyCharm or IntelliJ. Some areas where there could be improvements are jumping from one part of the code to others using a keyboard shortcut. After a certain point, Rubymine is not able to perform optimizations on the code because it is too long. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"One of the best IDE for coding in Ruby"
What do you like best about RubyMine?

As well as other Intellij programs I really love the way that they keep the same visual assets as well as the same functionalities.

They do it really well with the Go to definition and the find usages options. I use it almost everyday. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about RubyMine?

Well... I dont really like the size of the IDE, it's really heavy and if you're using a Macbook with only 120gb of space, you can't really be wasting space, so I have RubyMine on a separate external hard disk, no big deal at the end of the day but it's a bit annoying to go with the macbook and also the hard drive.

What do you dislike about RubyMine?

Can be resource hungry. Great for full development but overkill when scripting or making minor tweaks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
