Anyone who is on a small VPS (256mb in my case) knows how resources can run low pretty quickly! Especially if you are trying to run both a Rails site and a PHP site on it. Pretty much any stack you chose (whether it is nginx with mongrel, or lighttpd with fastcgi or mongrel etc..) […]

I decided to give netbeans ruby ide a try for my new rails project, after having read a lot about it on blogs (especially this post on LifeOnRails). At first I thought it was a bit slow, but it turns out the nightly build I was using had some problems. I downloaded a new one […]

Well, now that I customized my colors, and added a couple of plugins, I’m starting to really like this editor!
Here’s a couple of plugins you should look into:
jEdit Ruby: For rails/ruby development, it features a LOT of cool options.
PHPParser: Useful for PHP (identation, error reporting etc. )
SuperAbbrevs: Detailed in previous post
ProjectViewer: Not as good as […]

Well I had the chance to try out TextMate and I can see why everyone is talking about it, it’s a great editor for web development and it’s a pleasure to work with!
