pycharm is good. there's also a video for it in treehouse. i've played around with Jetbrain's other IDE's too (for Golang and JS) and they're all similar and have some interesting short cuts to learn. I've seen that other coder's who have been long term emacs users have videos on youtube proclaiming they have switched to one of Jetbrain's IDE's as well, and even Google's official android IDE is based on their's (IntelliJ) so it's cool to see that it's getting some heavy endorsement. I've learned over the past few months that if Google endorses something in the internet or coding world, then it's pretty legit.
