Take Home: IDE-style code-browsing for the web

hhariri6• 13 years ago

Actually a little bit more, as pointed out in the post.

moondowner• 13 years ago

So it's something like Eclipse Orion? http://www.eclipse.org/orion/

timdorr• 13 years ago

Orion is an editor. Upsource is mainly a browser. R/W vs R/O.

noelwelsh• 13 years ago

Seems like it could be a serious competitor to Github -- the code browsing would be a huge step over what Github offers. However, there is no indication JetBrains want to go that route.

pintglass• 13 years ago

I wish that Atlassian would buy rights to Upsource so they could use it in Stash.

manojlds2• 13 years ago

Atlassian and JetBrains are competitors. Don't see it happening.

zeckalpha• 13 years ago

Though a Salesforce, Atlassian, and JetBrains three way merger would be cool.

rschmitty• 13 years ago

Are you sure? JetBrains uses Atlassian http://confluence.jetbrains.com/dashboard.action

meshko2• 13 years ago

They do already have that tool, you know? https://www.atlassian.com/software/crucible/overview (but I think Upstream has every chance of blowing it out of the water)

jtsu• 13 years ago

Perhaps you meant Fisheye ? https://www.atlassian.com/software/fisheye/overview

JetBrains guys usually fail to disappoint, I'm really curious how this is going to work (out).

noir_lord• 13 years ago

Jetbrain's are one to watch.

I've not used development tools as good as theirs since the days when Borland was handing Microsoft it's own head in the IDE wars of the late 90's.

Phpstorm in particular makes the language much more fun to work with and it stops you dropping out the flow state with stupid paper cut errors/messages.

aka don't make me think.

mmariani2• 13 years ago

This piece of software looks awesome. Kudos to JetBrains! However, could you guys fix the sluggishness of PyCharm? PyCharm is awesome too, but this problem renders the IDE cumbersome. I run it on a MacBook Pro i7 with 16GB of RAM and a SSD, so it's not my hardware. If you guys take care of that I will certainly keep renewing its yearly subscription.

hhariri6• 13 years ago

Have you contacted support? We have a built-in way to gather performance snapshots and try and solve the problem.

mmariani2• 13 years ago

Thanks for the feedback. I'll gather the reports and send them to you guys.

pplante• 13 years ago

i used to have a lot of problems with intellij/pycharm when i first upgraded to a macbook pro retina. turns out the major performance problems i experienced on 12.0 were from the block cursor mode. disabled that and its pretty lightning quick now. the newer 13.0 EAP releases are even faster.

sumit_psp• 13 years ago

This is great. I can see them going for a revision control system next and build the complete eco system.

moogly• 13 years ago

They're already working on that. They demoed some really early version in Malmö, Sweden recently. There's a video somewhere.

orybak• 13 years ago

All videos from Malmö are posted in company blog http://blog.jetbrains.com/blog/2013/09/12/jetbrains-day-fooc...

cabbeer• 13 years ago

Here is the actual site: https://upsource.jetbrains.com/ Although it appears to be down right now.

hhariri6• 13 years ago

We're looking into it. It's still 'early' EAP :).

MrBuddyCasino• 13 years ago

Out of curiosity, I tried to log in with my Google account and then got this when I was sent back to https://upsource.jetbrains.com:

Cannot get icons from server. You do not have permission to access the requested resource

skram• 13 years ago

Yup, looking forward to checking it out once it's up

hhariri6• 13 years ago

Should be back up again.

olegstepanov• 13 years ago

HN effect :) Thanks, guys, working to get it up now.

meshko2• 13 years ago

I got excited there for a second thinking that this will be, among other things, a continuous integration tool, but it is not presented as that. Yet?

scotth• 13 years ago

That's what TeamCity's for (http://www.jetbrains.com/teamcity/). Seems like they'd work well together.

pmichaud• 13 years ago

I love this. When I'm browsing code on github (which I do often), I find myself trying to use my editor's hotkeys to jump around in the source. I've been hoping for something like that, and now that this exists, I think it's just a matter of time before github implements it.

efdee• 13 years ago

JetBrains is one of the most interesting developer-minded companies out there right now and have been for a number of years. Between IntelliJ IDEA (Java and all things JVM, and then some), Resharper (must-have extension for Visual Studio), all their other IDEs built on the IntelliJ IDEA core (Webstorm, Phpstorm, RubyMine, PyCharm, ..?) and all the other great tools they offer (TeamCity for one), I don't know what this developer's life would look like without them.

TL;DR: efdee <3 JetBrains.

jasonlotito• 13 years ago

What really isn't mentioned here in the threads, and the thing that really caught my eye, was the inspections. The notations of where potential errors were in the code. This is amazing, and would make code reviews so much easier.

garblegarble• 13 years ago

This struck me as one of the most interesting features too - especially if it keeps track of new static analysis issues introduced/fixed in code - currently I use TeamCity and it's got integration with inspections too but it would be really interesting to see a good UI for exploring this data as it changes across commits - like Sonar

shiftb• 13 years ago

I would love to see this tacked on to Github. Or alternatively use Github as the source repository.

hhariri6• 13 years ago

Upsource can point to any repository, public or private. Kotlin and IntelliJ projects on there now are actually pointing to GitHub.

codex• 13 years ago

One interesting feature, as yet unimplemented (it seems) is semantic diffs: why show 1000 renames of a class or variable name in your diff, when a simple "foo was renamed to bar" would suffice?
