To meet the always-growing user expectations, WebStorm 5.0 re-evaluates web developer productivity once again. Along with many smaller additions that make routine coding even more efficient, it introduces 'Live Edit' mode. On every change of HTML, JS or CSS code in the IDE, the browser page is intelligently updated (currently works with Google Chrome), even as you go through options in completion lists. Live Edit saves a lot of time on window-switching and helps you stay fully focused on the code.
"As it often happens with innovations, the idea is in the air, it's just a matter of good implementation. We think that with Live Edit we've found a simple yet significant way to help web developers gain in coding productivity with no additional effort," said Alexey Gopachenko, WebStorm project lead. "WebStorm 5.0 also takes further our Prevent bugs initiative and extends its JavaScript unit testing abilities. You know, best practices are even better when they are easy to follow."
Additional key features of WebStorm 5.0 include:
