    "Jetbrain's Masterpiece"

    Posted 2020-12-11

    Pros: I am a developer, and when it comes to doing python modules, PyCham is the best option to do so. It helps a lot as plugins reduce the work to half and PyCham supports hundreds of plugins. It has a lot of features to help a python developer. I have been using it for a year now, and by every passing day, as I am getting more familiar with the IDE, I love it more as it has a lot of things to reduce the workload.

    Cons: The app is too heavy for normal low-level coding. Features are too overwhelming for a beginner.

    Overall: I am using it with interaction with Anaconda for ML, and it works wonderfully. The basic features, such as colour coded and auto-completion, come handy. For python developers its a blessing.

    "Pycharm is a lifesaver"

    Posted 2020-05-25

    Pros: - User friendly interface.
    - Supports many scientific libraries which were very helpful for me.
    - One can also use it for web development on the pycharm professional edition.
    - It has a default dark theme which I appreciate.

    Cons: - Some of the features like web development is limited to the paid version of the app.

    Overall: I am a college student who had an assignment based on Image processing. I have very little 'know-how' regarding python, due to which I was having problem in completing my assignment. I tried many interpreters but was very confused on how to get it to work. Then, I stumbled upon this app from a youtube video, and my work seemed a lot easier and I finished it a lot faster.
