- RubyMine is now free for non-commercial use, including learning, open-source contributions, content creation, and hobby projects.
- The new licensing model aligns with WebStorm, RustRover, Rider, and CLion, which are also free for non-commercial use.
- Commercial use requires a paid subscription, as defined in the Toolbox Subscription Agreement for Non-Commercial Use.
- Non-commercial users cannot opt out of anonymous usage statistics collection, which helps improve the IDE.
- The free license offers a full-featured IDE, with the only difference being the Code With Me Community feature.
- Non-commercial subscriptions auto-renew annually if used at least once in the last 6 months of the subscription period.
- Users can switch from a paid license to a non-commercial subscription by deactivating their current license and selecting the non-commercial option.
- Older versions of RubyMine (prior to 2025.2.1) do not support obtaining a non-commercial license.
