rails.vim is a Vim plugin providing Rails-specific navigation, syntax highlighting, and command wrappers for editing Ruby on Rails applications. It offers alternate/related file jumping, :E-model/view/controller commands, generators, and customizable projections.

Use cases

  • jump between rails models views and controllers in vim
  • enhanced rails syntax highlighting in vim
  • run rails tests from vim
  • generate rails controllers and models from the editor
  • extract partials from rails views
  • navigate rails directory structure with gf

When to choose

  • you develop Ruby on Rails apps in Vim
  • you want IDE-like file navigation for Rails in a terminal editor
  • you want to run Rails tests and generators without leaving Vim

When to avoid

  • you use an editor other than Vim
  • you don't work with Ruby on Rails
  • you need an IDE with full language analysis rather than editor tooling
