    All you need is just to grab the latest EAP build!

  3. Way cool John!

    Will we see that in PhpStorm too?

    Cool feature! Thanks:)

    But if compiler output errors, we will not see it.
    In Visual Studio Web Essentials this problem solved by writing error text into *.js file.

    For example:
    /*
    Compile Error.
    See error list for details
    C:/Users/Anatoliy/Documents/Visual Studio 2012/Projects/TypeScriptHTMLApp1/TypeScriptHTMLApp1/test.ts(21,4): Supplied parameters do not match any signature of call target
    */

  5. Awesome! Really looking forward to its release. Speaking of release, what is the intended release date for v6?

    Hi, I’m new to jetbrain IDE’s, just a question…
    Phpstorm === (php + webstorm)?
    If I going to purchase phpstorm I ‘ll get webstorm new features?
    Or I’ll need to snatch webstorm in order to get all this new features?

    • Mikhail Vink says:

      Yes, basically PhpStorm = WebStorm + Php + DB features. You will get WebStorm features in the next release of PhpStorm (and some of them are already available in current EAP).

  7. Very cool!

    On another note — what software are you using to capture these screen casts? I’d love to know!

    Thanks!

    I’m trying to Debug CoffeeScript this way, but without success. I can set Breakpoints, installed CoffeeScriptRedux, but Source Maps aren’t generated.
    John, if you achieved debugging of TypeScript, can you achieve this with CoffeeScript?
