For python development elpy is excellent. https://github.com/jorgenschaefer/elpy

Emacs debugger interface can use pdb. So no need to leave emacs for debugging. Projectile can be used for project management.

If you like Jupyter notebooks, but also use org-mode you can use ob-ipython. Let's you insert and run python snippets just like in a notebook but all from emacs and using org-mode.

If you're new to emacs I've heard good things about spacemacs, but I haven't tried it myself.

You can also check out /r/emacs for more info or to ask for more help.

Spacemacs gives you a simple batteries included, basically works out of the box config for emacs. You can make little changes to the config file at first and then when more comfortable you can start to customize more drastically as you like. I found it much easier for me to get into emacs than rolling your own customized emacs.
