June 29, 2022 5.0 Pros Smart features - code editor and navigational tools that make it easy to work with your code and develop it without errors. Favorite feature is how it can debug/solve errors while coding in case you forget a simple syntax rule or make a typo. Cons They are still working things out with integrations - a lot of other handy tools out there do not work well with pycharm which meant that I have to stick with pycharm only and then export my code and perhaps use a tool elsewhere for integration purposes - like python notebooks.

Student Worker Higher Education Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Phenomenal Python IDE for Developers" August 9, 2022 5.0 As a Student Worker, part of my responsibility is to showcase to prospective students projects in Computer Science. Python is the most popular class, so most of the project code I show is with PyCharm Pros PyCharm makes it easy to search for Python packages that you have or want to install. Debugging support is very high, and installing PyCharm is very simple. Cons PyCharm uses a lot of CPU and Memory, so if you don't have a laptop that has high RAM or CPU, it will slow your machine down and sometimes PyCharm may crash. Additionally, PyCharm is rather pricey if you buy the full license. Review Source Mike P.

Pros \- Neat features to create and support multiple python environments when building a project - Out of the box support for popular python frameworks such as Django and Flask - Smart code assistant and IntelliSense is quite advanced and convenient.
