Glider 1.8 Preview

Glider (IDE)
#1

Hello All,

Thanks for everyone’s support with our Glider IDE, we would not have made it this far without you! Here is a sneak peak at some of the features to expect in the upcoming 1.8 release.

**-

  1. Live Coding- Similar to our variable update feature but much more streamlined. Property editors for numbers, booleans, strings, and colors. Instantly tweak any variable directly from the IDE in a very interactive way.
  1. Project Management- Configurations, aliases, enable/disable flags, external libraries, resource bundles, will streamline your development. Switch from paid to lite version or English to Spanish and everything in between is just a click away.
  1. More powerful intellisense- We rewrote the parser and it is more powerful than ever. Our custom Lua VM written just for the IDE “runs” your code to figure out function returns, parameter transformations, variable usages, and even metatable-based inheritance systems. All this makes for the best intellisense seen in a dynamic language IDE.
  1. Symantic highlighter- Globals defined in the current file light up green. Globals used in this file are italicized.
    You can easily spot a misplaced global this way.

5)Instant renamer- Improve the readability of your code instantly. Rename local variables on the fly while taking into account language constructs that a simple find and replace will not.

Please note that this update will be free if you have already purchased Glider.**

@All,

Thanks for everyone’s interest.

“Any ETA on the release?”
There have been some pretty significant changes, even more so than from v 1.6->1.7 so there is quite a bit to test. We are doing quite a bit of internal testing and a few alpha testers are helping us tremendously. A public beta will be available soon and anyone interested can participate. Just send us an email via the contact form at our website:
