Whether it is registered or not, please use a different name, given that this 
https://juliabox.org/ exists and is very much supported/run by the official 
julia core team. No need to cause naming confusion here.

 

Cheers,

David

Isn't JuliaBox a registered trade mark?

Hi everyone,

 

I just finished putting together a basic mockup of what a Julia IDE might look 
like. I'm calling it JuliaBox:

 

Source: https://github.com/dcarrera/JuliaBox

This is literally just a shell and it doesn't *DO* anything yet. But I think 
this is a good way to start thinking about what it would take to write an IDE 
for Julia in Julia. The idea is that as we try to implement concrete features, 
we'll get a better idea of what are the missing pieces.

 

If you want write access to the Git repo just let me know. I know I'm not the 
best coder here, and I'd love to see a group effort going.

 

If you look at the README file, you'll see my current thoughts on what 
components are missing, and where we might get them.

 

Cheers,

Daniel.

To continue Michael's answer, I think it would be nice to collect list of most 
important features that existing editors for Julia still lack and think out 
what can be improved. So far I've seen following features: 

 

 * integrated debugger -- currently work in progress (Gallium.jl), so it may 
change soon

 * better integration with REPL -- AFAIK, Emacs is the only editor that has 
this integration (via ESS mode) so far

 * code refactoring 

 * built-in documentation (in addition to Julia's own help system, I suppose)

 * built-in plots

 

This doesn't look like a huge list. If this is what is needed for 
non-programmers to work with Julia without pain, I'd say we have a good chances 
to get it. 

 

If you look carefully, you'll see work progressing on each and every one of 
these projects, in some cases very rapidly.

 

* The new 0.4 documentation allows all sorts of access and search features with 
extremely little amounts of code.

* Refactoring: https://github.com/jakebolewski/JuliaParser.jl/issues/22

* UI: There are two predominant threads of work, one in GTK and one in Blink 
(JS-enabled web-like DOM windows).  Take a look at the new Immerse.jl and 
https://github.com/JunoLab

* There's also interesting work in terminals themselves, making the REPL more 
full-featured there.  Take a look at TerminalExtensions.jl for iTerm2 on OS X: 
you can display arbitrary images (like plots) inline and capture backtraces in 
order to open an editor directly to the error with a double-click.

 

It's only a matter of time before more of these things come together.  I think 
it's really exciting!
