I work on a few projects these days (teamhomefield.com, founderscard.com, <stealth>.com), all of which are webapps written in Rails (v. 2 and 3). And every time I start to code, I open Terminal and TextMate in Space 2, and a browser (Chrome) in Space 4 (using 2x2 spaces, with comm in space 1).
In that browser I always open http://localhost/ , http://railsapi.com/doc/haml-v3.0.9_rails-v2.3.8_ruby-v1.8/ , http://jqapi.com/ and a couple of projects specific pages. Today I finally added these pages to a bookmark folder so I can get my dev environment going just a little bit faster.
It’s probably not a bad idea to automate the entire process (Terminal, TextMate, Browser) with a single command, but I rarely reboot and just haven’t found it that pressing yet. How do you get up and running on your machine?
