Notice the dropdown lists methods from the int class. If code completion fails you, type hints (as in episode_id: int ) will turn it right back on. I have to deal with minor RSI issues and the amount of code I type vs the amount of code created by the tooling with good code completion really does make a big difference in both speed and health. Personally, I think great intellisense / code completion may be a single feature which alone wins me over. I know I said it’s the sum total of features that make P圜harm worth it. P圜harm has great code completion, whether it’s for a built-in or an external package. I could easily make this 25 but let’s start here. Here they are: 9 reasons to consider making P圜harm your primary editor to write Python code. For me, the grass is greener on this side. So I have spent some time on both sides of the fence. I don’t need that.” I should say that I spent several years writing C++ with Emacs on SGI supercomputers to great effect. If your current workflow involves more pure text editors such as Emacs or Sublime Text, take a moment to see P圜harm with an open mind.įinally, if you’re skeptical of this opinion and you think to yourself, “Here’s just another guy dependent on GUIs to write code. So in this post, here are 9 of my favorite features of P圜harm which taken, in total, build a pretty serious case for giving P圜harm a chance. Moreover, these only become a benefit once you take the time to truly learn them and leverage them without the features getting in the way. Rather it’s the sum of all the features as a whole.
There probably isn’t a single reason that works for many people. But often the conversation goes, “What feature makes using a big, heavyweight IDE that costs $200 worth it? I’ll just use Emacs” or something along those lines. To me, the best software for this holistic purpose, is P圜harm. Specifically for Python devs, I think we should be using the best tools that help us create but also read, test, maintain, and evolve the software we build. Our time and effectiveness are extremely valuable.
Again, totally reasonable.īut the truth is, as professional developers, we spend most of our time on GUI-based OSes. If you’re doing open source, maybe you are looking for something non-commercial and free. If you spend a decent amount of time SSH’ed into Linux boxes in your data center, well GUI apps such as IDEs make little sense. This includes editors such as Emacs and VIM but I’d also throw in more UI based text editors such as Sublime Text, Notepad++, etc. Many developers, especially in open source ecosystems such as Python and Ruby, or Linux-based web environments in general, tend towards the minimalist with regard to editors. Update: Listen to the podcast interview with the P圜harm guys. Here’s a blog post to accompany that episode. On my podcast, Talk Python To Me, I’m working on an episode highlighting P圜harm, the amazing IDE from JetBrains.
