Ruby On Rails with Visual Studio For Under $50!
Ruby In Steel Text Edition

7 January 2008

by Huw Collingbourne

As I mentioned in my last blog post, while other people were spending a relaxing Christmas and New Year, I was hard at work getting the new version of our Ruby On Rails IDE ready for launch. Well, it launched today. It’s called Ruby In Steel Text Edition and it comes complete with its own copy of Visual Studio 2008 at no extra cost.



The whole lot will set you back a very modest $49 (that’s around £27 in British money). If you’ve ever wanted to get into Ruby or Rails programming and you are looking for quality development tools that won’t cost a fortune this is your perfect opportunity...

OK, enough of the hard sell already. I think I’ve earned an afternoon off so I’m going to take the dog for a nice long walk. Then, tomorrow, with luck, I may finally have a bit of time to get back to work on some Bitwise features... ;-)
