Rack-webconsole, a console inside your browser

“Wouldn’t it be nice to have an in-browser console for a Rails application?”

Introducing rack-webconsole

Rack-webconsole is a Rack middleware that enhances your development experience providing a JavaScript-powered bridge to your Ruby application backend.

With it you can interact with your database and explore the runtime environment from within the browser. Although it should be used mainly in development environments, I personally think it could be a useful tool for staging as well. Avoids the pain in the ass of interacting with some console over an SSH session :)

This one is really useful. It keeps you in your browser window while debugging an application.
