Codetown ::: a software developer's community
Just started with Ruby on Rails ( Rails 3) and I'm trying to figure out the best I.D.E. Here's what I've found so far:
Eclipse / DLTK - while researching this on the web I came across a number of broken links which was a bad sign and when I did get it installed I wasn't able to debug using it. Ater some more web searches I came across a few posts that said basically the Ruby plug-in had run out of steam and was not being pursued.
JetBrains/RubyMine - this installed and works, so far the *looks* like the best bet. The instant database diagramming looks really cool, do other I.D.E.s support this?
Ecliplse/Aptana - just got this installed, Will try debugging with it soon.
Does anyone have recommendations for their favorite I.D.E.? I don't need anythgin too fancy, as long as I can set a breakpoint and view variables and the call stack I'm happy. And it helps if its a free product.'

Kevin, What have you found out so far with Eclipse/Aptana and JetBrains/RubyMine? Have you experimented with any other IDE's?
With Eclipse/Aptana I *think* I got installed, but the online references that showed how to start a debugging session accessed menu options that were not present so I was unable to use it. So far RubyMine looks the best, it also checks the syntax of of .html.erb ( Embedded RuBy ) files and generates a diagram of your DB tables, highlighting any relationships that look hinky. Worth noting RubyMine costs money, while the others I've looked at are open source and frankly I think the developers for the free plugins ran out of steam. The profit motive at work.

Uber migrated all its payment transaction data from DynamoDB and blob storage into a new long-term solution, a purpose-built data store named LedgerStore.

The move resulted in significant savings and simplified the storage architecture.
