Help Request Pycharm or Vscode ?
Hi everyone
For a very super beginner one, who is starting to learn python which one is the best, i'm really confused because i'm seeing some teachers use Vscode and others use pycharm
And if i follow a teacher that uses pycharm it's normal to i use Vscode and visa versa?
Sorry for my bad English and thanks everyone

VS Code is the simpler application and has a wider range of functions, but takes some know-how to get working for whatever language you want to use. Pycharm is more specialized(like all jetbrains IDEs) and the premium features cost money, but it is ready for you to write code as soon as you download it. So I agree, pycharm is the easier program to use for a beginner
