Michael S
Senior Key Expert
4.0

Michael: Hi, my name is Michael. I'm a physicist, specializing in high power lasers and optical fibers, which is where I did my PhD. For about 10 years, I've been working for ams OSRAM, which is a company who produces LEDs, mostly for cars and very specific applications, so high power. So I'm not a 100% software engineer, but I've been using Python within PyCharm for about 10 years, almost daily now, and I give PyCharm a 4 out of 5 stars. Within my company, I work in research and development and what I do a lot with Python is writing scripts that first they're usually working on spectrometers to read them out, to do data processing for the R&D and then later on those projects usually grow as things move more and more into production, up to projects that can even not only read out things, but even control test handler systems. I think the best feature or the best application for PyCharm is because it has a really low entrance hurdle. It has this great community edition and a very great community. So especially for people like myself who are not pure software engineers, but who do software engineering as part of their job, this is very good for people to get into it, especially for Python. Biggest downside in my opinion is that PyCharm is very Python focused and as soon as your projects, say outgrow and integrate other programming languages or styles, particularly like C++ or especially AV control, then you are going to feel that other IDEs like Visual Studio, which obviously also costs a lot more, or even Visual Studio Code may suit your needs more, which is also why like a year ago for one particularly big project, we moved over to simply doing everything in Visual Studio Code.
