PyCharm is an Integrated Development Environment (IDE) used in computer programming, specifically for the Python language. It is developed by the Czech company JetBrains.[2] It provides code analysis, a graphical debugger, an integrated unit tester, integration with version control systems (VCSes), and supports web development with Django.
PyCharm is cross-platform, with Windows, Mac OS X and Linux versions. The Community Edition is released under the Apache License,[3] and there is also Professional Edition released under a proprietary license - this has extra features.
Features
- Coding Assistance and Analysis, with code completion, syntax and error highlighting, linter integration, and quick fixes
- Project and Code Navigation: specialized project views, file structure views and quick jumping between files, classes, methods and usages
- Python Refactoring: including rename, extract method, introduce variable, introduce constant, pull up, push down and others
- Support for web frameworks: Django, web2py and Flask
- Integrated Python Debugger
- Integrated Unit Testing, with line-by-line coverage
- Google App Engine Python Development
- Version Control Integration: unified user interface for Mercurial, Git, Subversion, Perforce and CVS with changelists and merge
It competes mainly with a number of other Python-oriented IDEs, including Eclipse's PyDev, the more broadly focused Komodo IDE.
