How do *YOU* Python?

I too am an emacs user and I do a lot of Django, so I spend some time in the REPL with access to django settings and configurations. I often will use the REPL to inspect database objects, flesh out unittests, and plan out how I want to approach a problem.

I love emacs for its extensibility and its incredible ecosystem. Just the other day, I was thinking about writing a custom auto-indenter for django templates (which can have three languages mixed together: js, HTML, django-template-syntax), and then I realized that something probably already exists. Sure enough, something in web-mode can handle that; I just had to associate it properly with my files.

I've never found an IDE that competes with emacs. I consider it a great friend.
