Founder of fluentCODE here. Really happy to see this posted, we just pushed really hard last night to get the site up. Lots of good comments -- I'll just add that we will be a lot more than just a C#/VB/JS editor. We've got plans to build CodeEngines for F#, TypeScript, CoffeeScript, CSS/SCSS/SASS/LESS, PHP, python and lots of framework specific bits for each of those.

We're a small team working hard on a product we believe in. Ask anything and I'll try and respond if I don't fall asleep!

FYI, Go is missing a full featured IDE and Go is picking up steam. Not much competition in this space yet although JetBrains I think started putting real effort into the plugin.

I really like Go and have definitely felt there's room for great integrated tooling there.

I want to do Go as one of our early code engines. We'll probably start off using srclib for early Go support and then build up some bigger features around the compiler tools, go fix, and so forth.

This looks interesting and I would love to try it so do you all have any plans of releasing a trial version or giving a trial period?

When we hit v1.0 we'll have a trial download available.

Awesome. Sounds good and I look forward to trying it.

will the alpha version pricing still be available at that time?

If things go as planned, this pricing will go away before the v1.0 release.

SQL seems to be missing from that list. Is that on your roadmap at some point?

We want to do some cool stuff with SQL down the road. We'd start with features like a query result browser, but could expand that into things like query analysis too.

We don't have it pegged for a specific release just yet though.

Yep! It's in the backlog; to start we'll probably use srclib [1] under the hood to provide the code intel bits, and we'll do some special UI wrappers for bundler/gems.

We've been working hard to make srclib's backend more powerful, and we've just started to build features that take advantage of the new backend. I've sent you an email, and we'd love to work more closely as srclib nears v1.0.
