Curious, why not just used IntelliJ with the plugins for python? I’ve never used the standalone apps. Do they provide a better experience?

- ikrenji 4y agoidk, i just assumed that pycharm would be optimized out of the box for python, so i never bothered with intelliJ
- dougdonohoe 4y agoAFAIK IntelliJ with the Python plugin is basically the same as PyCharm.
- xmcqdpt2 4y agoIntellij IDEA only has the barest support for C/C++, whereas CLion is a full-featured IDE with similar feature to IDEA.
- 59nadir 4y ago> I’ve never used the standalone apps. Do they provide a better experience? In my experience there is no difference in terms of slowness, no. The standalone apps are usually just bundled with more features for the specific use case by default and in some cases they have features you can't readily get in just IDEA.
- nijave 4y agoAs far as I know, the standalones seem to work better with SDK and tool detection (I guess IntelliJ has to try to figure out which plugins to activate) Some projects with mixed languages (like a Ruby backend, HTML/JS webapp) I've had to kick IntelliJ a bit to get it to cooperate and find tests correctly Someone else mentioned CLion, I think Rider also has features you can't get via plugin (maybe there is no .NET plugin..?)
