please advise me some good Python IDE, I was using netbeans but it does not have suitable code completion (when I press "." it gives me methods of all classes of python. It would be nice if netbeans would work as for ex. for PHP..

Thank you.

Pytools should add intellisense for python to visual studio if you are developing on windows. I have not tried it myself so I don't know how good it works.

  • Pytools is pretty awesome. It's my new favorite python IDE. Debugging works like C# which is pretty good. – User Dec 20 '12 at 02:50

I have also been searching for a good IDE for Python development. I tried using Emacs and Komodo but finally settled for PyCharm. It does a really good job at auto completing the code and I find it to be worth the money.

Depending on the type of development you do, you could get a discounted or even a free license.

well, many IDEs now come with pretty good code completion. Eclipse with pydev is nice, or you can get aptana studio 3 to perform similar to it. Theres also jetbrain's PyCharm, if you don't mind paying for a licence (they do give a trial version too if you want to test it before buying). There are a lot of such IDEs, guess you have to try them out to see which suits your code completion tastes better.

I found the below links very helpful in deciding the python IDE. They provide a lot of insight into the features with respect to all the relevant IDEs. It looks like most of them have auto-code completion feature as per these links. Since I have been using eclipse and VS Code all my life, I stick with Pydev or VS Code, yes will need some plugins to install. Pycharm has lot of features, if you can afford paying some money. I also found intelliJ also supports a lot of features.
