Last week the Python Software Foundation (PSF) published the results of the Python Developer Survey 2019. The research was conducted in the fall of 2019 and collected answers from over 24 thousand Python developers from 150+ countries. The Python Developers Survey is an official instrument endorsed by the PSF and serves as a reference to understand what is going on in the Python world. With no further ado, let's take a look at some interesting facts from the research! 1. JavaScript is still the most popular 'second language'... JavaScript is still the most popular 'second language' among Pytho

Developing in Python is the dream job of many developers out there. According to the latest survey from StackOverflow, Python is the second most 'loved' language, and the 'most wanted' one. Now, imagine working for a Python software house where you have the opportunity to be part of many different projects, sometimes even simultaneously? It sounds amazing, right? But, of course, it also brings some challenges. You need to communicate more, be aware of different project scopes, take decisions under different technology requirements, and much more. Complexity is also closely related to productiv

Good news for Python developers and the PyCharm community!

As any tool, it can be used in different extent. Some users will use basic features and will feel happy about it while others, more curious, will explore possibilities and g

I've long been a big fan of pydantic by the prolific Samuel Colvin. In 2018, the package added support for dataclasses by providing its own decorator which "creates (almost) vanilla python dataclasses with input data parsing and validation." Alas, the "almost" was a sticking point. In particular, PyCharm's code insight only treated the built-in decorator as something providing dataclass support. A PyCharm plugin was needed, first to make PyCharm treat pydantic dataclasses like regular ones, then to fill in coding assistance for the other aspects. Enter Koudai Aono. Despite

Good news for Python Django developers! The partnership between PyCharm and the Django Software Foundation has just raised 40,000 USD! For the fourth time, JetBrains PyCharm boosted the Django Software Foundation (DSF) fundraising with the campaign 'Get PyCharm, Support Django', where for 28 days users could purchase new individual PyCharm Professional annual subscriptions 30% OFF while giving the full amount of their purchase directly to the DSF. Even given current conditions, the campaign was a success, raising a total of 40,000 USD and representing 20% of the Foundation's funding goal for 2

The release of PyCharm 2019.3 is right around the corner and we're excited to announce we now have available a release candidate version. Check it out by downloading it from our website! Improvements in this version We've solved the issues causing remote interpreters to take a considerable amount of time and take up a lot of space while running commands. With this version expect remote interpreter usage to be less time and space consuming. The visualization of executed cells for Jupyter Notebooks was improved. In the past, executing a cell might caused some misplacement by scrolling out

PyCharm 2019.2 is almost ready to be released, and we're happy to announce that a release candidate is available for download now. New in PyCharm Enable of actions during indexing We identified certain actions that have no reason for being disabled while the indexing process is happening. This version will now let you run and debug your application, create a new project and change the interpreter while indexing is in progress. Further improvements Fix for unresolved references error using Python 2.7 interpreter The error stopping Django server run configuration over SSH is now f

PyCon 2019, Cleveland...heck of an event and kudos to Ernest Durbin for a most memorable edition in his delightful city. We at PyCharm did some memorable things at PyCon, with some weird ideas that turned out nicely. Some time has passed: let’s do a retrospective. Central Idea: “The Big Tent” In a nutshell, we got a bigger booth and invited some of the major Python content creators to share one side. Where did this idea come from? At the previous PyCon, we were in a HumbleBundle with some of them, did an open space, and dang if a good audience didn’t show up. And not just for one of us, but f

PyCharm 2019.1.3 is now available, and fixes a couple of issues that we've identified in PyCharm 2019.1 Fixed in this Version An issue where the PyCharm debugger would freeze when viewing multi-dimensional NumPy arrays has been resolved. The PyCharm debugger can automatically attach to subprocesses spawned by your process. Unfortunately, we had a bug that made this freeze the debugger for Python 2 scripts. So, if you're still on Python 2, you'll have working subprocess debugging, for the rest of the year. Several small issues were resolved in our managed Jupyter server support. And
