Sponsored Workshops

Saturday 13.00, Roman Štrobl (SUN Microsystems) — „Developing Ruby & Rails applications using NetBeans“

This session is a demo-driven presentation of Ruby support in NetBeans IDE. NetBeans has added great Ruby support in version 6.0 and it currently provides many advanced features for Ruby development. Code completion helps when writing code, you can use refactoring to make changes fast, debugging Ruby and RHTML code just works and inline documentation is always available. During the demos you will see how to get started with Ruby development using NetBeans, how to benefit from different features in the editor, how to customize your environment including using Textmate templates and how to get the vi editor working inside of NetBeans. You will also see new features in version 6.1 which is currently being actively developed including support for Rails 2.0, tasklist integration and many new quick fixes in the editor. NetBeans is an open source project so we will also discuss possibilities of contributing to NetBeans and available community resources.
