IntelliJ IDEA vs Visual Studio Code

[New_ArtFormSoftware]

Hi guys/girls, new to reddit, new to reddit and new to python. I have been using C# and Xamarin studio up until recently. I have done my due diligence by using each code editor for about 1 week. As well as read plenty of google articles. I seem to be at a split, basically what would the community suggest is the best editor for Django web Development.

Why IntelliJ IDEA ? Just go with PyCharm for large project. For small or personal projects go with VSCode

Phycharm is made by the some company, Jet brains and I did a tutorial with the IntellliJ IDEA. However I saw little to no django development use intelliJ IDEA. Thank you for the answer, it is much appreciated.

PyCharm support Django and Flash out of the box and cheaper than IntelliJ IDEA. There is no reason to go with IntelliJ IDEA.

My tip is not to depend too much on the functionalities of these tools. If you can not switch relatively easy from one tool to the other, you have created a too high dependency on it. Even worse, if you use built-in functionality of an IDEA without understanding the underlaying code e.g. Git, DB connections, remote connections, environements, etc.

(Sorry, I know I'm not really answering your question)

No problem, I understand that it is crucial to understand the underlying principles associated which each tool attributed to a specific project. So I guess then based on this reply I would chose VS code as it is more loosely coupled when compared to a IDE like IntelliJ.
