Frequently asked questions ( 5 )

Q

Whether the Pycharm is open source or not?

A

Yes, the Pycharm is asn open source application.

Q

How to download the Pycharm?

A

For download the Pycharm , use the following link as given below "https://www.jetbrains.com/pycharm/ "

Q

With the announcement of PyCharm will the IDEA plugin still be available?

A

Yes, we plan to release new PyCharm builds and plugin updates synchronously. The plugin will remain free for those who have purchased a IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate license.

Q

What is the differences between PyCharm and the Python plugin. Will there be advantages to using PyCharm instead of just the plugin?

A

PyCharm offers a simpler UI in a number of areas such as project management, IDE settings etc.

The Python plugin, in its turn, has the full range of Jython support features (cross-language navigation, completion and refactoring). PyCharm only supports Jython as the runtime for running applications.

If you're not using the Java/Python integration, PyCharm is a better place to start.

Q

Are the project files compatible between IntelliJ IDEA and PyCharm?

A

Projects created in PyCharm can be opened in IntelliJ IDEA with Python plugin installed without any issues. IntelliJ IDEA allows a more flexible project configuration, such as the possibility to configure libraries for projects. PyCharm will be able to open and work with projects that use the more advanced settings, but you will not be able to change the settings in PyCharm.
