First came Vim, and next Gaizka added APIdock integration to Emacs. Now perhaps the biggest favorite of most Ruby and Rails developers, myself included: Textmate! Courtesy of one of Nodeta’s own, Ville Lautanala aka Lautis, you can get the Textmate bundles with APIdock goodness for Ruby and Rails from github with just a couple of simple git commands:
% mkdir -p ~/Library/Application\ Support/Textmate/Bundles
% cd ~/Library/Application\ Support/Textmate/Bundles
% git clone git://github.com/lautis/ruby-on-rails-tmbundle.git "Ruby on Rails.tmbundle"
% git clone git://github.com/lautis/ruby-tmbundle.git "Ruby.tmbundle"
% osascript -e 'tell app "TextMate" to reload bundles'
Now, the keyboard shortcut
gets you the page for the current word from APIdock.

Even though some companies have publicly announced not to hire summer trainees, that’s definitely not the case at Nodeta. Our APIdock team from the last year is continuing also this summer, but in a bit different project (to be announced!). We also plan to hire a couple of new developers and designers.
We have a long track record of sponsoring the university student organizations here in Finland. You can already find our logo from the websites of Computer Science students at Tampere University of Technology, Computer Science students at Helsinki University of Technology, Computer Science students at Helsinki University and the World Championships of Academic Kyykkä.
Next week we’re once again having some great time with our long-time partner, Tietokilta. On February 25th they’re hosting a recruiting event at Helsinki University of Technology (TKK), auditorium TU2.
We have a very tight 30 min. slot, but I’m trying to cover some interesting details about our own Scrum implementation, trying to explain the students why they should be spending their spare time with Ruby on Rails instead of something else, and I’m also going to present a small case study about one of our projects.

I’m a vim user myself, and I was very happy to find that the guys at Akita On Rails had put together a small vim helper that allows you to jump directly to the APIdock page of the given Rails keyword. You can find it from their Github dotfiles commit.
Keep these contributions coming. :)
UPDATE: There’re now emacs bindings available as well.
UPDATE 2: One of our own guys also implemented a TextMate command.
