This has to be one of the best ads for WebStorm. I hadn't heard of it before I saw these screencasts, but as someone who uses VIM for all my non-.NET development, I was really impressed with what the tool can do to enhance productivity. Similar to what ReSharper does. JetBrains seems to do good work all over.

It's no surprise he's an evangelist for WebStorm. He's doing a great job showing off its strengths.

Oh, and AngularJS looks really interesting.

So true! I bought a license for WebStorm on that end-of-the-world sale they had a while ago and never cared to actually install it. Definitely going to check it out now.
I tried to sign up for the end of the world sale, but their servers were down and they won't honor the discount now. I don't blame 'em... but would love it if they threw me a bone for something like PHPStorm.
Don't they offer free licences to people who contribute to open source projects? The did for ReSharper and (something else I've forgotten.)
They do, it's a really painless process. I submitted an application during the end of the world sale and within a day or two I had a licence. I then felt bad at getting it for free during the epic sale, so I also bought an intellij license out of my own pocket to even things up :)
I can scarcely believe that I too did exactly this.

Although I guess Textmate has benefitted from this kind of thing over the years.
