The RubyMine is a very helpful environment, espcially the intellisense. However, there are so many new concepts for a newbie that a quick link to the pertinent explanation in the Ruby or RoR documentation would make RubyMine a better learning tool.
Ideally, when you run into a new concept, for example "validates_presence_of", you'd highlight the keyword and press F1 or other help key which would take you to the appropriate spot in api.rubyobrails.org.
What kind of help you do expect?

RubyMine can show you a quick documentation (Ctrl+J in my keymap) but doesn't provide links to external sites :(
Oleg.
Thank you Oleg I'll check that out.
