Hi , This Python Extension <https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=donjayamanne.python> too supports the features you have mentioned. The difference is: - Visual Studio Code is more of a lightweight and cross platform alternative (completely open source - MIT licensed).
Here are some of the features: - Linting (Prospector <https://pypi.io/project/prospector/>, Pylint <https://pypi.io/project/pylint/>, pycodestyle <https://pypi.io/project/pycodestyle/>/Pep8, Flake8 <https://pypi.io/project/flake8/>, pydocstyle <https://pypi.io/project/pydocstyle/> with config files and plugins) - Intellisense (autocompletion) - Scientific tools (Jupyter/IPython) - Auto indenting - Code formatting (autopep8 <https://pypi.io/project/autopep8/>, yapf <https://pypi.io/project/yapf/>, with config files) - Code refactoring (Rename <https://github.com/DonJayamanne/pythonVSCode/wiki/Refactoring:-Rename>, Extract Variable <https://github.com/DonJayamanne/pythonVSCode/wiki/Refactoring:-Extract-Variable> , Extract Method <https://github.com/DonJayamanne/pythonVSCode/wiki/Refactoring:-Extract-Method> , Sort Imports <https://github.com/DonJayamanne/pythonVSCode/wiki/Refactoring:-Sort-Imports> ) - Viewing references, code navigation, view signature - Excellent debugging support (remote debugging, mutliple threads, django, flask, docker) - Unit testing, including debugging (unittest <https://docs.python.org/3/library/unittest.html#module-unittest>, pytest <https://pypi.io/project/pytest/>, nosetests <https://pypi.io/project/nose/>, with config files) - Execute file or code in a python terminal - Local help file (offline documentation) - Snippets On Saturday, 22 October 2016 05:56:43 UTC+11, Muizudeen Kusimo wrote: > > Hello Folks, > > PyCharm makes debugging Django (and other Python) applications very easy. > Some of the features which are very helpful include: > > 1.
