PyCharm is an excellent choice for IDE, especially now that 3.0 has a free community version and more support for PyQt. > One thing I can't get to work is code completion for the PyQGIS API. > > I've added '/Applications/QGIS.app/**Contents/Resources/python/**qgis/' > and '/Applications/QGIS.app/**Contents/Resources/python/' to the > interpreter's path.

However, I have noticed that sometimes PyCharm on Mac does not properly rebuild the 'skeletons' for code completion (I'm using PyCharm 2.7.3). Try relaunching the app and removing/re-adding the path, then clicking the reload button. You should see a progress bar and eventually notice the qgis.* modules being parsed. If not there may be an issue. For plugin development, I add external commands, several of which are for running my plugin's Makefile [0]. While the new PyCharm 3.0 has an embedded terminal, I find assigning a key shortcut (say Ctrl-M) to the make <prompt> command to be very quick for deploying the plugin to ~/.qgis2/python/plugins/. Deploying is the best-practice means of testing your plugin, instead of symlinking it, but that also works. Also, I recommend using the Plugin Reloader PyQGIS plugin to reload your plugin within QGIS, so you do not have to relaunch QGIS every time you propagate a change in your plugin.
