How does it compare to PyCharm?
- user5994461 9y agoHaving worked a few years on both, they're both great.

- nnq 9y agoIt's on par, as long as you don't do too many refactors on nasty codebases. Now, PyCharm chokes on those nasty refactors too, guessing the right stuff only 70% the stuff in a way that sometimes feels purely random, but at least its find and refactor preview UIs save the day sort of... One thing that annoys me on VSC is that some operations (jump to defnition etc.) have delays on larger projects, because it does not create an "index db" of your code behind the scenes like PyCharm does, so it can show you usage and search for stuff practically instantly. Overall VSC is great for developing Python on not-huge and well-behaved projects. For degenerated overgrown messes it's not a good solution :)
- sorenjan 9y agoVisual Studio Code is not the same as Visual Studio, which is what the op was referring to.
- zie 9y agoJust an FYI.. The parent comment was about Visual Studio(https://www.visualstudio.com/vs/python/ https://www.visualstudio.com/vs/python/), and you seem to be commenting about Visual Studio Code(http://code.visualstudio.com http://code.visualstudio.com), which are 2 totally different products. Microsoft has terrible naming practices.
- odonnellryan 9y agoType hints have made PyCharm an even more amazing IDE. Start using them if you're on a version of Python that supports it! :)
- jordic 9y agojust for curiosity, how you type an equivalent of a ts union?
