quote:RubyMine is a Jetbrains product, and their software is pretty well-respected and widely used. I use PyCharm occasionally, which has both a paid and free version, not sure why the inconsistency with RubyMine there.
The problem is that the instructor was using a proprietary IDE (Rubymine) that I have never seen a Rubyist/Rails programmer use.
quote:I think they are usually given the products for free (or maybe they are even paid to use them) in the hopes of producing a class of future paid users of the software.
How do colleges decide on the platforms used for teaching?
