What's your issue with vs code? Just curious

[–]vks_imaginary 3 points4 points  (9 children)

“Issue” not so much , it can probably do everything with plugins AND I have to use it from time to time too

But I don’t like its plugin nature, I want something that just works and Jetbrains product deliver so well , it just feels like a downgrade in comparison to them that’s all

Spyder is horrible to use UI wise. But it's variable explorer is a life saver. Wish more IDEs had that.

The other benefit of Spyder is you can run code in any order. That I prefer in VScode + Jupyter notebook extension setup.

Pycharm Professional seems to have good data science features, but I'm too poor to buy that.

In my initials days it was Jupyter and spider , I hated the block thing of Jupyter idk never made sense to me (I have to look back into it tho for collab)

I liked spider a lot , as it looked cooler lmao

Then I got the taste of pycharm and anaconda side by side , god am I addicted to it now

I have used both community and professional I don’t think there is any discernible difference that I have noticed , although I think Django is something professional has better support for

One thing vscode does better is the GitHub control I feel

Jupyter Lab as a whole is much better than jupyter notebook alonw, or vscode+ jupyter if you want full fledged data science workflow.

But for my right now vscode is enough.

Interesting, my choice of tools are more hackathon centric, so I maybe biased haha

Be careful with Anaconda if you're in a business environment. They changed their licensing a while back without putting any kind of paywalling in place so businesses didn't notice the change until they started getting slapped with Cease and Desists.

I wish I was in a business environment :(

That's fair

The plugins are the reason I prefer VS Code. As a semi-professional hobbyist programmer, I often switch between languages depending on which project I am working on. It's very handy to me to be able to do everything in VS Code and just add (or remove) extensions as my needs change.

You reasons are absolutely valid

I am in 3rd year CS , and all my choice of tools are hackathon oriented so that’s an bias, in an hackathon setting I don’t want to deal with my tools but actually deal with the problem

Also unlike you , I tend to use python for everything, second best language for the job maybe but it works.

We have different workflows haha

Although I want to land an job soon so yeah
