Replying to myself, but for those who haven't tried Python Tools for Visual Studio - http://pytools.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=PTVS%20Installation http://pytools.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=PTVS%20Installati... - take a hard look at it. Once you get it working (which is a bit annoying with flask), its a beauty for debugging complex object mutation/state problems, etc
- geekam 13y agoThanks for mentioning the "Python Tools for Visual Studio". We are working to establish Django+Python environments and needed suggestions for good IDE's since majority of the devs are on Windows. How do you compare Python Tools for Visual Studio to PyCharm?
- drglitch 13y agoWe piloted PyCharm at work (500+ python devs) but found VS to be an easier ide to write specialized extensions for - e.g. custom source control, workflow tools, etc. Nothing beats the quickness of sublimetext, but when you're hunting after more complex gremlins or doing remote process debugging, a good IDE is key. I also met PTVS guys at last PyCon and they are very approachable.
