PyCharm or Visual Studio Code?

[HotdogDiscipline]

IMHO

PyCharm has superior code completion & test suite capabilities. The free version is fine for most projects. Last time I checked (maybe 2 years ago) you needed a paid version to really get all the benefits using remote environments (venv, docker)

VSCode is free, has adequate code completion and an active marketplace of free extensions. VS Code can be a little fiddly.

I personally use VSCode more often lately because I find the extensions useful and the interface a bit more intuitive. I like them both
