To not search the web, Python official website, published a list of editors. You can check this list of Python editors.
If we are going to search for a simple editor, so why not only use note pad. There's many editors on the Python editors list, some don't create .py files even; but the most are simple editors that just highlight your code and this is really stupid and won't help us.
What we need exactly is an IDE (Integrated Dev elopement Environment). It's possible to find a high quality and free IDE on the web, so the quest is to search. I find many, but no one was good and helpful. I don't really know how to find it.
Perhaps, because I'm searching a very advanced one, like Visual Studio. Ohh, I have read a thread in Reddit, the guy asks what text editor do you use with Django. The good users didn't give a link, so I had to search every term they put; I focus on the editors but they were awful!
Ok, you are searching for an advanced, professional, IDE for pyhton and Django. Don't search I already had done it.
Wing IDE is good, many features are in. It's advanced and for professional use. You can check out the screen shots. But what can I say, it's paying. And we are working Open Source for the community. It really sucks to pay $179 and additional $30 for a cover and also shipping costs :p
Waak, yet another Pyhton, ruby, php IDE. It's called Aptana Studio. It looks smart and pro, but sucks $99, oh no that's only for Pro edition. There's the community edition. (it's free).
It works on Mac, windows and linux. So joy for all Python programmers.
You should ask, why there's two version, one free and one not! Ok, those version aren't different, the pro just inlcude a support and pro plug-ins. Which may be not necessary so much. If it's then you must pay :)Ok, let's quit those money suckers. Here's the Open Source IDE for Python and Django!
NetBeans, that's it! But I would prefer Aptana. Ok, download them both and decide what to choose.
Hope it helps! Know an IDE? Let me hear from you!
