I think that when you're learning you should take the easy route and the IDE reduces some of the frustration we get when dealing with simple errors.



Good IDE will usually highlight style and basic issues as you're typing them, and you can get a better idea of what 'canonical' foo-lang is. I'm not a ruby expert, but using RubyMine I'm reminded of some things while I'm coding, and (some) errors (or just style issues) are spotted before I run.
