Best Javascript Ide For Mac



Active7 years, 5 months ago

Sublime Text. Since 2008, Sublime Text has brought a series of great editing techniques to Mac, Linux, and Windows. It’s a universal “text editor you’ll fall in love with”, says the developer, John Skinner. Without any doubt, if you are looking for a free text editor, TextMate is the best text editor for Mac. You may find many free text editors for Windows but there are very few free applications which are available for Mac and TextMate is one of them.

I'm currently looking to move to using an IDE for web development. The options I'm considering are:

  1. Aptana Studio
  2. Coda
  3. Expresso

The 10 Best WYSIWYG HTML Editors. Another honorable mention goes to Coda, a super cool text editor for Mac users. It’s pixel-perfect and beautiful, but it does cost $99 to use it. An Integrated Development Environment, or IDE as they are commonly refered to as, is basically like a well-developed environment to code your websites in. Best Text Editors for macOS Note: In this article, we are focusing on the best text editors for coding but if you are looking for a text editor for your writing purposes, you can check out our article on the best writing apps for Mac.

Please base your answers on the following criteria, in descending order of importance:

  1. Supports HTML, CSS, JavaScript
  2. Powerful (having good code completion, good debugger, great syntax highlighting etc)
  3. Fast and light
  4. Supports HTML5, CSS3, and major JavaScript frameworks (JQuery or YUI)
  5. Great design (both usability and aesthetics)
  6. Supports PHP, Ruby, and Python
  7. Has Git integrated

I've updated the question to be more objective. I'm mainly looking for an answer that addresses how well each of the IDEs addresses my criteria. Ho download infomatica in mac.

Of the three you mention I think Coda is the best buy. Espresso was (is) worthless until they integrate better. Aptana is heavy and clunky.

Note that Coda doesn't have a debugger or support for JS frameworks as far as I know. I last used Coda at 1.5 before switching to VIM / TextMate for everything.

Comparison

A: Aptana
C: Coda
E: Espresso

  1. Supports HTML, CSS, JavaScript (ACE)
  2. Powerful (having good code completion (ACE), good debugger (A), great syntax highlighting (ACE))
  3. Fast and light (CE)
  4. Supports HTML5, CSS3 (AC), and major JavaScript frameworks (JQuery or YUI) (A?)
  5. Great design (both usability and aesthetics) (C)
  6. Supports PHP, Ruby, and Python (ACE)
  7. Has Git integrated (A?)

Thoughts

  1. All support HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. By support I mean offers tag closings, some formatting options, and syntax highlighting.
  2. Code completion is bad, as are IDE's in general
  3. Fast and light are not indicators of good IDE's, rather they are indicators of excellent feature pruning.
  4. What specifically do you mean by HTML5 (buzzword), CSS3 (almost a buzzword)?
  5. All aren't horrible, Coda and Espresso are better then Aptana.
  6. All support to some extent these languages.
  7. None as far as I know have integrated git support, and none should. Git is best done at a command line.

Netbeans

It fits everything apart from 'Fast and light'. https://fuseever569.weebly.com/3d-player-for-mac-free-download.html. It's fast enough which is all you need.

  • Best tools I've seen for history and file diffs that you won't find in somethingsmall like coda.
  • There is a gitplugin which works really well.
  • Auto-completion for PHP is very good,better than eclipse based IDEs.
  • Support for web frameworks like railsand symfony.

You might also want to look at Komodo.

Here's the lowdown on Mac IDE's for PHP

NetBeansFree! Plus, the best functionality of all offerings. Includes inline database connections, code completion, syntax checking, color coding, split views etc. Downside: It's a memory hog on the Mac. Be prepared to allow half a gig of memory then you'll need to shut down and restart.

KomodoA step above a Text Editor. Does not support database connections or split views. Color coding and syntax checking are there to an extent. The project control on Komodo is very unwieldy and strange compared to the other IDEs.

AptanaThe perfect solution. Eclipsed based and uses the Aptana PHP plug in. Real time syntax checking, word wrap, drag and drop split views, database connections and a slew of other excellent features. Downside: Not a supported product any more. Aptana Studio 2.0+ uses PDT which is a watered down, under-developed (at present) php plug in.

Zend Studio - Almost identical to Aptana, except no word wrap and you can't change alot of the php configuration on the MAC apparently due to bugs.

Coda Created by Panic, Coda has nice integration with source control and their popular FTP client, transmit. They also have a collaboration feature which is cool for pair-programming.

PhpEd with Parallels or Wine. The best IDE for Windows has all the feature you could need and is worth the effort to pass it through either Parallels or Wine.

DreamweaverGood for Javascript/HTML/CSS, but only marginal for PHP. There is some color coding, but no syntax checking or code completion native to the package. Database connections are supported, and so are split views.

I'm using NetBeans, which is free, and feature rich. I can deal with the memory issues for a while, but it could be slow coming to the MAC.

Komodo is wonderful, and it runs on OS X; they have a free version, Komodo Edit.

UPDATE from 2015: I've switched to PHPStorm from Jetbrains, the same folks that built IntelliJ IDEA and Resharper. It's better. Not just better. It's well worth the money.

PDT eclipse from ZEND has a mac version(PDT all-in-one).

I've been using it for about 3 months and it's pretty solid and has debugging capabilities with xdebug (debug howto) and zend debugger.
