The Drive to Develop
What is “PyQt backend while debugging”? Why would one want to use that?
PyQT is a way to create desktop applications using a Qt frontend, learn more here: https://wiki.python.org/moin/PyQt
With this improvement, it became easier to debug applications that use PyQT using PyCharm.
What about this infuriating issue?
Can we please solve it already?
