Intelligent Coding Assistance
One of the most attractive features of PyCharm is its intelligent coding assistance. PyCharm provides smart code completion, code inspections, on-the-fly error highlighting and quick-fixes, along with automated code refactorings and rich navigation capabilities. PyCharm's smart code editor supports Python, JavaScript, CoffeeScript, TypeScript, CSS, HTML, and many other languages and frameworks. You can also take advantage of language-aware code completion, error detection, and on-the-fly code fixes.
PyCharm also helps you with code quality and style. It checks your code for compliance with PEP 8, the official Python style guide, and other standards. It also offers various tools to improve your code, such as code formatting, reformatting, rearranging, optimizing imports, and removing unused code. You can also use PyCharm's built-in debugger and test runner to find and fix bugs, as well as the Python profiler to optimize your code performance.
Web Development Frameworks
If you are a web developer, PyCharm has a lot to offer you as well. PyCharm supports various web development frameworks, such as Django, Flask, Google App Engine, Pyramid, and web2py. You can use PyCharm's graphical tools to create and manage your web projects, such as the Django template debugger, the manage.py and appcfg.py tools, and the database tools. You can also use PyCharm's live editing feature to preview your changes in the browser as you edit your code.
PyCharm also integrates with many web technologies and tools, such as HTML, CSS, JavaScript, AngularJS, Node.js, jQuery, Bootstrap, and more. You can use PyCharm's JavaScript debugger to debug your client-side code along with your server-side code. You can also use PyCharm's built-in terminal to run commands and scripts for your web development tasks.
Remote Development Capabilities
Another feature that sets PyCharm apart from other IDEs is its remote development capabilities. You can run, debug, test, and deploy your Python applications on remote hosts or virtual machines using PyCharm's remote interpreters. You can also use PyCharm's integrated SSH terminal to connect to your remote servers and execute commands. Moreover, you can use PyCharm's integration with Docker and Vagrant to manage your development environments and deploy your applications in containers or virtual machines.
