    <h2>IDE</h2> <p>Most RoR developers use a simple text editor (Textmate on MacOS, Scite on Windows) - mostly because most features (Refactoring, Code Completion) of IDEs designed for languages like Java/C# can't be applied that easily on a dynmic language like Ruby. However <a href="http://www.netbeans.org/features/ruby/index.html" rel="noreferrer">Netbeans</a> does well so far (on the other hand there is <a href="http://aptana.com/" rel="noreferrer">Aptana Studio</a> - based on Eclipse).</p> <h2>Databases</h2> <p>Since RoR does a lot of abstraction it doesn't really matter what RDBMS you use. <a href="http://mysql.com/" rel="noreferrer">MySQL</a> and <a href="http://www.postgresql.org/" rel="noreferrer">Postgres</a> might be the best choices since they are the most used ones (so you can hope for continuous support). I wouldn't start to chose based on the flamewar about performance, rather on the services/support that come with them.</p> <h2>Markup</h2> <p>The standard would be ERB (similar to ASP inline scripts) combined with (X)HTML. However there are other markups like <a href="http://haml-lang.com/" rel="noreferrer">HAML</a> which might be enough for some projects.</p> <h2>Benefits</h2> <p>Using IronRuby you get access to the .NET framework and interop with other .NET libraries. You might also write some parts of your application in static C#. According to some <a href="http://antoniocangiano.com/2009/08/03/performance-of-ironruby-ruby-on-windows/" rel="noreferrer">benchmarks</a> it might be "faster" than native Ruby, not a real advantage though IMHO.</p> <p>At the moment I would recommend you to get started with regular RubyOnRails - you might be able to switch later on (once IronRoR is stable enough) - if you should still desire to switch.</p>
