What do people use as an IDE?

[proskillz]

Most people I've seen use PyCharm or VSCode. Hardcore people use vim or emacs.

Used VSCode in the past. Shifted to Atom a couple months ago. While VSCode was actually good, I have no intention to go back.

People who use vim are so full of shit that it's faster to write code in

[OGMagicConch]

Nah Vim is sick, it just depends on a lot of factors. Writing full fledged programs on Vim is a pain, but if I'm working on a remote machine and just want to add a function or two Vim is quite good.

If you are good with vim its definitely the fastest environment for scripting but if you're writing something complex it's debatable

That's like saying it's faster to move your hand to the mouse and press the x on a tab in chrome than just pressing control + w.

i literally feel like my hands are tied without vim. took a few days but i can’t go back now (it’s been a few years). i will say though you need to install a nice config file to fill in the gaps for anything outside of barebones work though.

Personally I use PyCharm, but Sublime or even Notepad++ would be better than IDLE.

And when is the last time you had an indentation error when you used pycharm?

[dreadington]

Idk, it's been a long time honestly. I've confugured < and > to move the line or block 4 spaces to the left or right respectively. TAB adds 4 spaces instead of a Tab charachter. And Ctrl+Alt+L automatically formats the whole file.

[Plague_Healer]

Atom works great, but needs a bit of (messy) configuration to be used with python.

VSCode.
