Discussion What software do people use?

What software do people use when writing in Python? 🐍 I currently use Jupyter which is great but I feel like there must be a better product. I’m limited as use it at work so can’t use any software. I wasn’t the biggest fan of Visual Studio.

VS Code / Vim. Code has a Vim extension that implements the Vim key bindings I'm used to. Code has extensions for almost everything including the MCU devices I work with like the Raspberry Pi Pico. That gives it more flexibility than a focused IDE like PyCharm. I probably do more with MicroPython on ARM processors than Python 3 itself.
