I am a fan of Text editors. I love vs code but for a low configuration pc its slow so for my day to day work I use sublime text. Cause its light weight fast and I started using Geany that is also light weight fast and gives option to execute script from the editor. Geany is just the IDE I need.
Back when I worked in a Web agency, I also found Geany and loved it very much. Being a Linux user myself, and having banned all Microsoft products from my house (only Linux system, macOS, PlayStation, and Nintendo). But Geany lacked some feature or had some feature that wasn't well implemented at the time. So I went for Sublime Text 3, that was great for a while. Today I use VSCode, probably one of the best software Microsoft ever did. One of the things important to notice is that VSCode is open-sourced, so if you don't trust the Microsoft Binaries you can always review the code yourself and install it manually.
VSCode memory hog, same as Atom and doesn't do much at all based on the size and RAM usage. You can't compile any thing out of the box. For 650MB Atom does the same as Geany 3MB. Being a javascript is very slow. The editor is slow for a small file. Geany is native cross platform app
I have been teaching Python for about 15 years now and in that time I have gone through almost all the editors offered. II am using Visual Studio Code at the moment but as you mentioned it does a bit too much for the beginning coder. I am looking for something a bit stupider but not as stupid as IDLE. VSC can also be a overwhelming to get working with Python. Thanks for the Geany suggestion. It is one I have not tried. The chess program looks interesting. It is also so modifiable. A simple non-graphics version as an intro to the programming concepts could then be blown up into a graphics version with a fancy board and pieces and moving with mouse clicks. My problem with it would be teaching most of my kids chess!
Great information! I just started my class for python this semester and we use Eclipse with PyDev. If it wasn't for your video's I wouldn't know about half the stuff on this final. Keep up the great work ^^
But PyCharm is the best IDE for python.whether it may be ML or game-devops or app-devops it is recommended.Package control is good, easy to install and remove packages, easy to create/delete a venv of pip or conda. My first IDE was PyCharm and I have tried using many IDEs like Sublime-Text, vim, spyder, jupyter lab, atom, geany etc., still I feel PyCharm is the best unless you have a low configuration computer
PyCharm has a lot of great features; however, most of what you mentioned are of little use to beginners. I specialize in beginner coding so Geany is perfect for my needs. Keep on codin!
I use Visual Studio Code at the moment and I like it a lot. I also tried Sublime Text for a while which is also a very clean editor. I prefer editors which are not distracting with features. I'm looking forward to your chess game tutorial ;-)
I agree - I like something simple that doesn't get in the way and is lightweight! I'll have to watch the Queen's Gambit to get in the right frame of mind!
Pycharm is a great choice for Python. However, I prefer an editor that works with multiple languages as I also teach Java, HTML, CSS, and Javascript. I don't want my students to have to learn a different editor for every language/technology.
Thanks for the helpful video! I had to edit my comment because I babbled on about the pros and cons of PyCharm, and that's not what this is about! :D Suffice to say, I'm happy to hear that VSC worked well for you since I've thought of switching to that, and I do enjoy the predictive text, hover tips, and error warnings. Geany has always looked streamlined in your videos, but you're killing me late at night with those white screens, homey! ;)
Instead of VSCode, you could try VSCodium, it's the samen minus all the crappy Microsoft branding and telemetry. Buuuuuut my favorite will always be the almighty VIM!

I am having problems for connecting the python module and geany together can you help or do a tutorial on it please? thanks
If you watch the video, there is a brief part at the end where I show how you need to change something to use Python 3 - that section might help.
@@TokyoEdTech I am a bit mad, the second I commented that I figured it out😑 but thanks any ways :D
hewo tokyoedtech, is it possible to make a "slime volleyball" tutorial in python? ive been searching youtube and i havent found one
Hiya - I might try that - it looks like a fun game!
@@TokyoEdTech yay!
@@bruhifyify5713 I'm actually working on it now, but can't figure out the math for the collisions and bouncing).
lmao there's math?!?
@@bruhifyify5713 Yep - to make the ball bounce correctly.

pyCharm is expensive
@@wonghow but you also have community edition of PyCharm which is free
good information 😊 - I have been using MU-Editor for beginners (also because it is amazing to code in MicroBit with MicroPython)
my geany doesnt open, ive redownloaded it 4 times and it never wants to open
Sorry, don't know what to tell you on that one.
I use Visual Studio Code at the moment and I like it a lot. I also tried Sublime Text for a while which is also a very clean editor. I prefer editors which are not distracting with features.

the visual studio 2019 is much better than code i think

I use brackets for website dev stuff
I hear a lot of good things about Brackets... definitely want to check it out!
How did u put the dark mode ???
In geany.
and the syntax font ?
@@yuvithegreat3878 In the new versions this is possible
Yes! I use geany too! I love it
@@TokyoEdTech yes I’ve been using it for years, it’s great!
@Aarit Hooda just go to geany.com and click install, pick the right os system that suits your computer
I use pycharm community, free and simple
Pycharm is a great choice for Python. However, I prefer an editor that works with multiple languages as I also teach Java, HTML, CSS, and Javascript. I don't want my students to have to learn a different editor for every language/technology.
@@TokyoEdTech I have atom, but I prefer using pycharm because of the simplicity of running programs I make
That's important! Geany runs Python programs with one click or the press of F5...easy peasy!
@@TokyoEdTech Geany no doubt seems like a better option than pycharm. Can you run programs out of JavaScript and c# too?
I haven't tried C#. Javascript usually requires a browser unless you are doing something like node.js.
No Sublime?... 😏
@@TokyoEdTech
But mine is free on Linux... I guess everything is NOT free on Apple or Windows versions...
😱😱😱😱😱😱
@@TokyoEdTech
I guess I had this kind of thing on my Linux last time, right now I do NOT see it on Ubuntu...
me: wanting to make chess
also me: pauses video every second when there is chess programming coming up and copy it
hehehehe

You teach very nice on youTube
Yep - I teach coding to middle and high school students.
The Solution:
Linux...
