You should really probably give Jetbrains' IDEs a try, if you use any of the languages they support.

I find it hard to think I'd give PyCharm up for my daily Python and Typescript.

I tried PyCharm for a couple of months. It has some nice features, but they fall apart way too often. A sibling comment mentions Java, and maybe a more statically typed language does work better, but for Python the dynamic nature of the language makes “more primitive” code manipulation tools like PyCharm fail eventually.

It seems to be the only tool capable enough to at least offer some degree of inline checking and autocomplete. Everything else I’ve tried seems to be perpetually early beta.

Is there a more sophisticated Python tool than PyCharm?

My biggest gripe is the Mypy type-checking which only discovers errors minutes later.

What do you mean with "they fall apart way too often"?
