Development environment for Node.JS?

Question

IDE

Dear Habravchan, could you please advise a normal development environment for Node.JS (CoffeeScript). Unfortunately, I have not yet met normal IDEs where there would be normal code completion for Node.JS (and even more so CoffeeScript).

The problem is that at least on some serious applications, completion is already starting to fail, and it can only be debugged with console.log. Maybe the habravchane will be able to advise something?

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Have a look at WebStorm, it might fit perfectly

Answer 2

Cloud9 , yes it is online, but there is nothing more sharpened than cloud9 for node.js

Answer 3

WebMatrix 2 RC: support for Node.js, Jade, EJS, LESS, CoffeeScript and more

Answer 4

All the IDEs you listed, alas, did not suit me, even the same Cloud9 already fails on at least some complex project and there is neither normal completion (I suspect normal completion and not just the most popular words), nor debug. I’m not even talking about others, everyone suffers from the same symptoms. If the IDE works under Linux, then this is an add. plus, but I'm starting to think more and more that there is no normal development environment for Node.JS yet.

Answer 5

Cloud9 - debugging, highlighting, git
WebStorm/PHPStrorm - autocomplete, debugging (albeit with versions older than 6 I think, in the 6th version something in the core affecting debugging has changed, maybe they fixed it in the latest version of the plugin), highlighting, navigation through methods etc

Answer 6

I have been working with nodejs for two years now. From the very beginning I used TextMate, now I'm looking at Sublime Text. Autocompletion is of course clumsy, but everything works very quickly (unlike storms / eclipses). For debugging, I use node-inspector - a very handy thing.
PS: I haven't debugged CoffeeScript yet, but I think you can conjure something.

Visual Studio Code is not suitable?
