The template debugging looks awesome. I wonder if there is a project that provides django template debugging as a stand alone thing? I don't see myself ever moving from vim to Jetbrains.

As a former vim user myself, if you do use IntelliJ or PyCharm I can recommend using the IdeaVIM plugin:

I am with you, vim is pretty awesome. But having used IntelliJ for Java, I'm very excited to see what JetBrains can do with a Python IDE. IntelliJ really is a fantastic tool.

I use nano a lot, but I've been trying out PyCharm for a few weeks now, and so far I've been impressed. What's nice is that it really feels like it was built specifically for Python/Django as opposed to going with some other IDEs that shotgun their support. That being said I love customizing something simple like vim/nano into a great language/framework-specific IDE as well.

PyCharm also has excellent JavaScript support: http://www.jetbrains.com/editors/javascript_editor.jsp?ide=p... This, the IDE's cross platform support and the IdeaVIM plugin have basically converted me back to an IDE toting developer again.

I think having good HTML/JS/CSS support is a general trait of all of the JetBrains IDEs, in case you are curious if the one for your language has it too.

Could some one please elaborate on vim Vs PyCharm? I mean pros and cons?

I thought of asking the same question, but decided to do some googling.

Found this interesting review by Guido: https://profiles.google.com/gvanrossum/posts/CGh9MoWU53V

Overall, it seems to be a great editor for doing work in Python. I have been using vim as my main code editor for C++, Python, Ruby, PHP for nearly 10 years and it is hard for me to imagine leaving vim.

But no one says you can't use PyCharm and vim together. What I mean is that, when I am sitting down to work on some code having PyCharm seems great. But when I just need to make some quick edits, then vim can be used. In the end, the results of our work is just text chunks that are in a DVCS.

I think I will give the 30-day free trial a shot to see how it works compared to my vim setup (using https://github.com/astrails/dotvim as a base for my current vim seutp btw). And I recommend you to just give it a shot and see how it works for you and your workflow.
