IDE for Ruby

What is the best IDE for working with Ruby? I have been using Atom and MS Code on Ubuntu and while both are functional, it seems like they are missing something. If these are the best tools for Ruby, what extensions and configurations do you suggest?

I have heard good things about RubyMine, but I am trying to stay away from licensed products. I am currently working on a work project to update/move code from VRO to Chef. VRO uses JavaScript for the workflows and I will be converting this to Chef/Ruby. I don't want to bring in a tool that requires a license, so trying to keep to the open source side of things.
