Which is the best IDE for Python For Windows

Question

I am new to python and I am using simple gedit application on linux machine to write python code, however its very difficult to manage the indentations of my code. I am looking for any Python IDEs that provides some functionality and should not slow down my P4 machine.

@uncreative: that one points to [What IDE to use for Python](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/81584/what-ide-to-use-for-python), which is the community wiki for this question. — jro, Oct 26 '11 at 07:22
It's not a duplicate because it's about ***the best*** IDE only. — Dmitry, Sep 09 '17 at 09:13
@Dmitry Irrelevant, asking for software recommendations is irrelevant anyway. — Mark Rotteveel, Sep 09 '17 at 11:54

I recommend you take a look at the list of editors on Python's wiki, as well as these related questions:

Among the IDEs which the Python website has listed, PyCharm is a very good one, with very good features and tools such as support for Django, autocomplete, debugging and so on but it is not free ( you can use its community edition for free though, which does not have all the features). If you are looking for something free of cost, you can download MS-Code plus python-development plugin for it. – Kazem Mar 22 '19 at 02:47

Python is dynamic language so the IDE can do only so much in terms of code intelligence and syntax checking but I personally recommend Komode IDE, it's pretty slick on OS/X and Windows. I've experienced high cpu use with Linux but not sure if it's caused by my VirtualBox environment.

You can also try Eclipse with PyDev plugin. It's heavier so performance might become a problem though.

This answers the question "What Python IDEs exist?", not the question "What is the best Python IDE?". – Ceph Mar 29 '19 at 13:05
