Recently I downloaded Aptana Studio 3 because it's widely recommended. When I first ran it, it put up a dialog saying it was "configuring git support" with no button to opt out of this. When I let it proceed it put up a "progress dialog" saying “Configuring Git support (could take a few minutes)” with a grayed-out cancel button and it wouldn’t let me minimize the (full-screen) Aptana window so I had no access to my desktop to do other work while waiting. After 10 minutes I killed Aptana in Task Mgr.
I restarted Aptana and in the Start Page I clicked on Aptana Documentation but it sent me to a page about Titanium! Questions:
What is Titanium and does it replace Aptana? (i.e., should I be
using it instead?)
Where is the Aptana documentation?
Is Aptana still being maintained, i.e., should I report my
experiences to them as bugs?
Thanks in advance!
Titanium is a product that is built on top of Aptana Studio plugins. As you may know, Aptana was acquired by Appcelerator at the beginning of 2011. Titanium Studio is the main tool for Web and Titanium developers. Appcelerator provides both Aptana Studio and Titanium Studio, which are in sync in terms of the Aptana Studio features.
The documentation is at http://aptana.com/r/apdocs. It includes both Aptana Studio and Titanium Studio docs.
Definitively YES. Please report this issue to http://aptana.com/r/apbugs
Hope that helps :)
Appcelerator's Titanium offers the same HTML, CSS, JavaScript, PHP, Python, Ruby,
Ruby on Rails support as Aptana plus support for Titanium Desktop and Titanium Mobile.
For web development, the following page must be what you're looking for (since
for web development aptana is the same as titanium):

Had the same issue and it worked for me when I ran Aptana as an administrator. You can also opt out of configuring git by clicking the red X in the top right corner of the dialog.

I have Web Essentials 2015.2 installed.
When I, for instance, type "div" and then hit tab, it just selects the following block of html rather than adding a div tag. No zen coding features are working.
I'm using VS 2015 Pro Update 3 RC (version 14.0.25402.00) and the .NET Core Tools (Preview 1) and wonder if some of this is just not compatible?
I also have ReSharper installed, which I understand frequently interferes with shortcuts. Could that be it?
I have no clue what other info to include. Questions welcome if my problem solution are not obvious...
Problem is web essentials plugin.
Solution: Go to Visual Studio Marketplace. Type in Zencoding all one word and install the first plug in.
https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=MadsKristensen.ZenCoding
Or install it on Visual Studio (works perfectly with 2017) - Tools -Extensions & Updates - Online - zencoding. Close VS and restart.
It must be some bug with resharper because I couldnt get zen coding to work on web essentials plugin.
I have cleared resharper cache (global and solution) and disabled any
unused extensions and after restarting VS everything works.
UPDATE :
Changed TAB action in the editor,
Resharper > Options > Editor > Editor behavior and UNCHECK Use tab for navigation in code.
Web essentials 2017 has Zen Coding in it. If you had Zen Coding installed before loading Web essentials it breaks.
Uninstall both.
install Web essentials.
install Zen coding
It now works as intended.
I had similar issue in Visual Studio 2017, but after updating it, then
uninstalling the ZenCoding extension and reinstalling the ZenCoding extension, worked for me, even together with Resharper
For me the Zen coding was disabled(make sure you install it first), go to Tools and click Extensions and Updates and then Enable Zen coding. It's working now.
I had to install the Zenconding extension manually. Seems like it's not part of web essentials anymore...
I am just starting learning "Build 2D games with HTML5" from MVA and in starting i had a problem to configure my visual studio

what should i do now , your help would be highly appreciable !
You should use be using the Cordova CLI for your command line workflow for building Cordova Apps. For Cordova, more information is available here. If you want to use VS, then I strongly urge you to install our VS 2015 RC build which enables you to build Cordova applications for iOS, Android and Windows. More information for VS, is available here.
Good morning.
I am trying to setup haxe development tools in monodevelop as shown in this tutorial.
My problem is i can't find the haxe language binding the in add-in manager.
Does anyone know the solution to this issue?
Best regards
Guilherme Silva
Even the haxe binding dated 14/3/2013 only works for Monodevelop 3.0. I was able to download Monodevelop 3.0.6 from sourceforge. If it still doesn't work through the add-in manager, you can manually download it (link below) and install by file.
resources:
http://addins.monodevelop.com/Project/Index/41
http://sourceforge.net/projects/monodevelop.mirror/files/?source=navbar
I ran into this problem too. I believe it's because the Haxe language binding doesn't currently support (MonoDevelop/Xamarin Studio) version 4. And they don't currently seem to offer trunk builds, so we might be out of luck!

I'm using Eclipse Indigo with PyDev for python development tasks
and I'm unable to get highlighting to work for HTML/CSS/JS and the like files.
What do I need to do to fix it?
Thanks in advance
Oli
I think the best solution would be getting Aptana Studio 3 (I recommend getting the standalone version, but if you decide installing it as a plugin, you'll have to uninstall PyDev before -- because Aptana Studio 3 is a superset which already integrates PyDev).
See: http://pydev.org/download.html for links.
I want to start doing web development with Eclipse. Not Java, tomcat, axis2, or anything else anymore complicated than basic XHTML / JS / CSS development, at this time.
Problem 1: I realize that it can edit those files, but its trying to manage my HTML docs as part of "my workspace", and all I want it to do is manage the files as part of my local www server HTdocs directory.
Problem 2: I would like to edit WYSIWYG-style, if possible. I tried installing a plug-in for that, but I wasn't able to get w4 toolkit to function properly. This would really help me to speed up development, I think.
Follow-up:
I've installed WTP and its dependencies (except for the tests portion, which had install problems due to dependencies that were seemingly irreconcilable).
You can link a folder in your workspace to somewhere on your filesystem. So in your case you could create a folder in your Eclipse project called "html" and link it to your Apache htdocs folder.
You should try Aptana Studio. It's available either as a stand-alone install (based on Eclipse) or as an Eclipse plugin. It has a good reputation for Web App dev.
Why not start with a web design software? Once you have the web pages laid out the way you want them, you can add them to your web application in eclipse. Eclipse is great for application development. Even though it can handle some page builder needs, it's probably not as good as a web design tool. In your case, you end up having to install plug-ins for page building.
Eclipse is software for coding, it's not designed for WYSIWYG editing. If you want WYSIWYG, you should use Dreamweaver or suchlike.
If you want to use Eclipse for what is good for, coding, the main alternatives are Web Tools Platform which is quite basic and could be already pre-installed depending on what version of Eclipse you got, and Aptana Studio. which is quite bloated.
