Steel and Rails

Wednesday, May 10th, 2006

Sapphire In Steel is an add-in for Visual Studio that provides Ruby syntax highlighting, debugging, project running and so on. Pretty much what you expect in your VS IDE.

Sadly it doesn’t work with Rails projects. I can’t seem to import a Rails folder/file structure and start editing.

I really want that. I’d love to be able to code Rails apps in the VS IDE. RadRails is a decent IDE but it has some way to go (I especially get frustrated with its code-editor. It needs the polish that VS has.)

So the moment Sapphire In Steel adds Rails support I’ll be a happy geek.
