The best Python editor? - c_rutherford - Jul-22-2020 New to Python, I have some other programming experience but I like it so far. I'm an old UNIX guy and I've used VI quite a lot, so I wondered what people thought of VIM as an effective Python IDE. Is it fully functional for Python use, or would I be selling short by sticking with this? Some of the other editors used are: PyCharm Wing Eric PyDev SpyDers Pyzo Thonny IDLE Emacs I know some of this is personal choice, but wanted to get people's opinions/feedback. Thanks! RE: The best Python editor? - Knight18 - Jul-22-2020 I personally use the Python IDE for quick development/writing small code. And I keep PyCharm around for a heavy duty IDE for my bigger projects. My HDD is a bit slow and PyCharm runs significantly slower than the Python IDE, that's why. RE: The best Python editor? - snippsat - Jul-22-2020 Should also mention VS Code my main Python Editor for the past couple of years. I have Thread about here VS Code from start RE: The best Python editor? - perfringo - Jul-22-2020 If you are experienced vi user there is nothing better than Vim as Python editor :-) If you pick some other editor it’s useful to check beforehand does it has Vim keybindings and what are the limitations. RE: The best Python editor? - mlieqo - Jul-22-2020 Pycharm + VIM keybindings! RE: The best Python editor? - Gribouillis - Jul-22-2020 Kdevelop and Kate, perfect for linux... RE: The best Python editor? - Marbelous - Jul-22-2020 I also use PyCharm with the ideaVIM plugin. It has a convenient selector at the bottom right to disable it when you need to. RE: The best Python editor? - ibreeden - Jul-22-2020 I am also an old Unix guy so I prefer VI and VIM too. But because I have the feeling I should not be too old fashioned, I recently started trying Pycharm and I begin to like it. But of course sloooww in comparison to VI. RE: The best Python editor? - Gribouillis - Jul-22-2020 I cannot use VI because I have a BEPO keyboard and it would mean remapping all the VI key shortcuts. A tedious work, considering the large number of excellent editors. RE: The best Python editor? - ElvicHerrera - Jul-24-2020 I've been using Visual Studio Code and I am pretty new to programming in Python. I hear a lot about VIM but I'm not technically ready to use that. |
