Which IDE to use for Opa programming and how to host Opa code?

Question

I am Dot Net developer and would like to try using Opa, my questions are:

1. What's a good IDE to use?
2. How to host Opa code?

Answer 1

If you port this language file to the Gnome GtkSourceView Language Definition (v2), you (we) will be able to enjoy syntax highlighting in the Gedit editor on Linux.

I'd rather see it ported to a language file for Netbeans though.

The language is great, but it really needs some more IDE support for it to catch on.

Answer 2

Concerning IDE, check here. Options are a bit limited at the moment but we hope to make some progress on the Eclipse IDE -- you can drop a comment in the manual with a wishlist for an IDE :).

How to host? You can try DotCloud or Amazon Web Services.

You can use Sublime Text. The plugin is here.
