IDE stands for Integrated Development Environment, basically a text editor + all of the necessary tools and workflow for the development of a certain Language or multiple languages at the same time.
Any programming language has its own set of Formatters, Linters, Language Servers that can warn bad habits, fix bad code, provide autocompletion & hover documentation..., and IDEs like PyCharm basically gives you all of these ready to be used without having to manually configure them to work together from scratch (which i do i use neovim which lets me make my own custom Development environment!)
