PyCharm is cross-platform, with Windows, macOS and Linux versions. The Community Edition is released under the Apache License,[8] and there is also Professional Edition with extra features – released under a proprietary license.

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: includes rename, extract method, introduce variable, introduce constant, pull up, push down and others
  • Support for web frameworks: Django, web2py and Flask [professional edition only] [9]
  • Integrated Python debugger
  • Integrated unit testing, with line-by-line code coverage
  • Google App Engine Python development [professional edition only]
  • Version control integration: unified user interface for Mercurial, Git, Subversion, Perforce and CVS with change lists and merge
  • Support for scientific tools like matplotlib, numpy and scipy [professional edition only][10]

It competes mainly with a number of other Python-oriented IDEs, including Eclipse's PyDev, and the more broadly focused Komodo IDE.

Plugins

PyCharm provides an API so that developers can write their own plugins to extend PyCharm features. Several plugins from other JetBrains IDE also work with PyCharm. There are more than 1000 plugins which are compatible with PyCharm.[11]

gollark: Foreign function interface...?
gollark: They eat electrons.
gollark: I think the gravity manipulation stuff in this obeys conservation of energy, so just use the really energy dense power source to explode.
gollark: How would that even work? Replacing the stomach with a stupidly high-powered force field somehow?
gollark: I'm alt-tabbing between this and scaling up solar in Factorio.
