Things I Miss From .NET Development

After years of developing on Microsoft’s tools, I’m finding it hard to change my old habits. I’ve gotten too comfortable with Visual Studio and I must admit, there are things I miss. Here’s a short list:

  1. Intellisense!!! I didn’t realize how convenient Intellisense is. I rarely had to look for a documentation, even the ones that I wrote.
  2. Debugging. It’s so easy to debug with VS, I actually feel guilty.
  3. F5. Instant gratification, sort of.

I know there are IDE’s such as IntelliJ that just came out with Ruby support, but it just doesn’t feel the same. Now that I think about it, I had troubles adjusting to VS from a text editor I rather not mention here. I’m sure in time I’ll get comfortable with TextMate.
