The Spyder IDE comes with Anaconda. I use it with a large, 600-student introduction to CS class. One-click and it works for everyone.
Anaconda now links to PyCharm but it isn’t the educational version so there are extra steps for the students to install on their own computers. For student installation we have found more issues than with Spyder or VSCode — the two built into Anaconda. From my experience advanced student users such as CS majors prefer PyCharm (and then VSCode) over Spyder, but we have found Spyder to be the easiest for novices. -rich enb...@cse.msu <mailto:enb...@cse.msu>.edu > On Apr 7, 2021, at 11:05 AM, Wickes, Elizabeth <wick...@illinois.edu> wrote: > > I’ve used PyCharm Education edition for many years, which is free.
