UltraEdit Bulletin: Getting ready for August

Hello there! We’re publishing this short blog post because the next few weeks are going to be big for UltraEdit and we wanted to give you a preview. Get ready for a big summer event, a new campaign to help students and learners, an all-new UltraEdit release, and even a new integration in a popular IDE for one Ultra tool.

Read on further to check out what’s coming for UltraEdit in August and September. 

Dev Days of Summer Code Camp

Join us as we co-host the Dev Days of Summer Code Camp. The event is two weeks long and consists of live and on-demand developer content, all completely for free.

Enjoy a free platform for skill sharing and collaboration with some of the best developers and industry experts from a wide variety of coding disciplines. This event is open to all developers of all skill levels. We strongly encourage beginners and experienced developers alike to participate..

Here’s what you can expect from the event:

  • Explore Diverse Topics: Join discussions on a wide range of subjects from cutting-edge tech to foundational programming skills in  our webinars.
  • Interactive Sessions: Engage in Q&A sessions, hands-on tutorials, and collaborative projects with developer teams and experts.
  • Network and Grow: Connect with fellow developers, share experiences, and build lasting relationships.

 

Coming soon: UltraEdit 2024.1

Once you’re done signing up for the event, you can check out this preview of an upcoming update  to UltraEdit/UEStudio. This update is coming this month and it will feature numerous bug fixes and even more quality-of-life changes. 

These were all carefully curated and chosen from the most popular user requests.  Similar to previous releases,  this will feature several small but beneficial improvements that are useful for a majority of users.

Here’s a sneak preview of what’s coming:

  • A more streamlined support request submission system
  • New supported gestures for mouse, trackpad, and other pointing devices
  • Support for third party compare tool integration
  • And a lot more!*

*There really is a lot more but we can’t share everything here yet. You just have to keep posted for the announcement blog post. Sign up for our newsletter so you don’t miss anything!

 

Teaser: Big development coming for UltraCompare!

Our next announcement is related not to UltraEdit but to its sister tool, UltraCompare.

For you keen eyed readers, you would notice in the previous section how we mentioned UltraEdit will add support for soft integration of third party compare tools—that is if for whatever reason you don’t like the already integrated UltraCompare!

But for those of you who can’t get enough of UltraCompare, even when you’re on other programs or apps… great news! In a few weeks, UltraCompare will start the pre-release for integration on a popular IDE program. (Hint: It’s a popular Windows IDE.)

The idea here is to introduce UltraCompare as a plugin for the IDE so you can do compares and merges right inside the program window—much like how you do inside UltraEdit. We’ll start off with basic features most likely but stay tuned for more developments!

 

Update to UltraEdit Academic Licensing

When you start off your career as a software developer, data analyst, or amateur coder, you most likely started off with a normal text editor for basic coding projects. And while that’s completely fine, wouldn’t you prefer having something as powerful and versatile as UltraEdit right off the bat?

UltraEdit has granted 50% sponsorship for students, teachers, and teaching departments. This allows young learners to fully experience tools and start practicing on professional-grade tools used in the industry.

Starting from August 17, UltraEdit will fully sponsor licenses for individual students and learners. This includes but is not limited to: high school students, university students, self-taught coders enrolled with valid educational email addresses, etc. 

Please visit our academic page when the program is live for more information.

 

Summary

Many exciting developments are coming to UltraEdit in this month of August (and September too! But we’re saving that for the next blog post). Please check back on our website and on our blog to keep up with the latest news. 

If you have any questions or suggestions, please reach out to us using our support address
