I personally find VSCode the easiest editor to set up for Python development and the most powerful. I tried to set up the remote debugging in PyCharm, but it didn’t work. The refactoring tools available via pylance, linting with pycodestyle and the remote editing in VSCode took very little time or effort to set up and allow me to use the same editor I use for PHP, Zig and Rust. I have been working to set up neovim for a similar experience, which has access to a lot of the same features, but it has taken me many more hours of configuration. I understand there’s a lot of reasons not to like VSCode, but in terms of functionality and ease of setup for Python it has been the best for me.

I started my Python journey in Atom with some plugins, mainly using pylama. It was pretty decent and I still use it for ad-how code changes. When I work on anything more complex, I just switch over to pycharm because it also helps my brain to switch to “Python mode” better :)

Glad you found your happy place, that matters more than the actual feature set provided, IMO.
