The Dyalog IDE for Microsoft Windows remains the richest development environment for Dyalog. Over the years, the Windows IDE has taken advantage of the Windows GUI to provide provide a Workspace Explorer, integrated search and replace tools, tools for debugging GUI applications, the ability to copy and paste values from the clipboard and integrated charting of data. The RIDE is now the recommended IDE for macOS, AIX and Linux users, but until the RIDE catches up, the Windows IDE is expected to remain the tool of choice for pure Windows development.
