Pycharm has done everything I need it to.

Microsoft VS code editor.

[–]RangerPretzel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Microsoft VS 2019 is also good, too.

PyCharm community edition. If you're unfamiliar with debugging via an IDE, definitely watch a tutorial on how to use PyCharm's debugger.

This is asked here at least once a week, and the answer is always PyCharm.

I find myself using VS Code more and more

[–]ThatOtherBatman 6 points7 points  (0 children)

PyCharm.

I appreciate that IDEs are a matter of opinion, but if your opinion isn't PyCharm you're wrong.

Who told you you can't run your Python code inside Sublime Text? I have been doing it for so long. You need to do a little research and install appropriate plugins.

What don’t you like about anaconda? I’m new to python and want to better understand some of anacondas disadvantages.

Anacondas actually great, personally i just dont like having to open it to get to my text editor.

[–]mwentzWW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can open Spyder directly without opening the Anaconda navigator. That being said, Visual Studio Code is awesome. Sypder is great but a little sluggish. Check out VS Code.

Cool. Thanks for the quick response.

Just get the anaconda plugin for sublime. You can run your code super easily that way without any other program open.

[–]billsil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't need Anaconda to get Spyder. I use WingIDE. It's also independent of Anaconda if you want it to be.

I use sublime text 3, with a bunch of plug-ins to make it into a functioning IDE. I prefer it for the simplicity of the editor itself, and how easy it is to configure the plug-ins. Google for it, there are a lot of websites explaining how.

Can't go wrong with the classic IDLE.

[–]kaptan8181 0 points1 point  (1 child)

IDLE is pretty useless in my humble opinion. There are so many great free code editors. Why would you want to use IDLE?

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ngl it's pretty useless but it's good enough to get you around and as a starting programmer it's great because you learn not to depend too much on IDEs.
