Eliminate environment drift by using RubyMine's Docker Remote SDK to run and debug Rails applications inside production-mirroring containers.
Learn how to choose and configure the correct Ruby SDK in RubyMine to prevent 'Gem not found' errors and synchronize your IDE with rbenv, RVM, or Docker.
puts debugging makes you guess which variable matters before the run. RubyMine's graphical debugger—breakpoints, Evaluate Expression, conditional stops, and remote attach for Docker—lets you inspect everything after the pause. Here is when it is worth the switch, and when it is not.
A practical guide to configuring RubyMine's graphical debugger for Rails: SDK setup, debug backend gems, run configurations, breakpoints, stepping, variable inspection, and recovery from common startup failures.
RubyMine builds a static Rails model by parsing routes.rb, scanning app/ directories, and applying conventions — enabling jump‑to‑definition for route helpers, associations, partials, and helpers without booting the app.
Stop guessing why your Rails controller is throwing 500 errors. Learn how to use RubyMine's integrated debugger to set breakpoints, inspect params, and step through code.
RubyMine’s RSpec runner turns a single click into fast, in‑IDE test execution, debugging and coverage. This guide shows how to set it up, run tests, debug, and read coverage heatmaps, plus trade‑offs you should know.
RubyMine’s integrated debugger turns tedious Rails debugging into a visual, interactive process. Learn how to use conditional breakpoints and Evaluate Expression to pause, inspect, and modify state on the fly.
