    You can take advantage of language-specific-aware syntax and error highlighting, code formatting and completion, as well as quick documentation. Smart search allows you to jump to any class or file, symbol, or any IDE action, tool window, using smart search. You only need one click to switch between the super method, declaration, test, usages and implementation. You can navigate in Rails projects with super-fast navigation thanks to an MVC-based view and model, class, gem dependencies diagrams, and a project view and model. Code inspections are a great way to follow community best practices. They check your code for any errors and offer quick fixes.

    Nova Reviews
    If we are being honest, Mac apps have become a lost art. Although cross-platform apps are great, it's not who we are. Panic was founded in 1997 as a Mac software business. Our joy comes from creating things that feel Mac-like. Coda, an all-in one Mac web editor, was created long ago. When we began work on Nova, however, we looked at the web today and decided where we needed to go. It was time to make a fresh start. Our first-class text editor is the key to all this. It's fast, flexible, new, and super-fast. Nova supports CoffeeScript, CSS and Diff, ERB, Haml HTML, INI JavaScript, JSON. JSX, Less Lua, Markdown, Perl PHP, Ruby, Sass SCSS, Smarty SQL, TSX TypeScript, XML and YAML.
