I had unrealistic expectations of this IDE... Some of the current enhancements are nice (Search anywhere, for example).. The favorite theme they tout (Darcula) is not yet upto Sublime's theme, IMO. Somehow it feels gratuitously helpful-- and I can't accuse it of getting in the way (an easy trap to fall into). When it came to Python, I could not stand Pycharm - which uses the kernel from the java Idea-IDE. (disclosure…

There's definitely a difference between PyCharm and IDEA. I think it's that the code completion is psychic in IDEA, so I find myself writing about 1/3rd of each line and then hitting enter.

Yeah I don't think I could do .NET development anymore without ReSharper. Makes me wonder how much time I wasted by using Eclipse in my Java days instead of just forking over the cash for IDEA.

Is ReSharper still as slow as it used to be 5 years ago (VS2008)? Eclipse does a lot of "mind-reading", too.

I've been using VS2013 with ReSharper 8 (though I've been using RS in general for many years) and the pair seem to be faster than ever.

I have to disagree with both of these guys, it was so slow in Visual Studio 2013 that I actually disabled it. Then I was forced to re-enable it when I couldn't live without the functionality.

I recently bought one of those large Korean monitors (2560x1440). Even with 90 degree notation, I can easily fit two columns of code on screen (well, there is space for two columns, no IDE actually does this)

Would you mind telling me which one? I have had trouble finding a monitor that doesn't have weird colors when rotated

This is my second one. Haven't had any problems. The one I'm using now is Crossover 27QD-P. I bought it because it pivots, ironically it doesn't work when pivoted on my older model macbook pro. However, it worked perfectly on a similar (slightly newer) macbook pro so the problem seems to be with my laptop. Make sure you have the correct connectors, I had a buy a displayport-dual-linkdvi adapter from monoprice.

I'd love them to do a Mono / .NET IDE so that I wouldn't have to use Xamarin Studio on Linux / Mac anymore. Actually, I'm going to see if I can go put this on a wish list somewhere...

I hear they're working on a C++ IDE, I can't wait for it to come out.

this is so needed. i keep having to switch to eclipse (not that eclipse is bad these days, but it's annoying having paid for an ide...).

I would say Eclipse is still bad these days. Even after a decade.

If anyone else is having symbol resolution / syntax highlighter problems with their Play 2.x / Scala / SBT project after upgrading: be sure to File -> Invalidate Caches / Restart... http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/SCL-6337 http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/SCL-6338 http://www.jetbrains.com/idea/webhelp/cleaning-system-cache....

Holy shit, there it is. Thanks, man.

On side note: you can see how they follow OS X patterns in filling blank space: then that cloth, now just dark texture (like notif center)

So I've never really understood how the products are differentiated from each other. If I bought Intellij IDEA, does that mean I can download free plugins to get the same functionality as PyCharm? Does PyCharm support Javascript? If I want to do Django and Javascript, do I need to buy IDEA?

Yup, pretty much yes.

PyCharm does support js so you don't need IDEA unless you target jython.

I love and hate Eclipse/STS, but I don't think I will ever switch to IDEA, I love my freedom more. The least I can do for open source community is to use open source products and report bugs.

Why the fck are you downvoting this? It was just a fcking opinion, if a tool makes you productive use it! A bunch of narrow minded people...

I didn't downvote you, but your tone came across as "closed source = sucks", which (I assume) some users disagree with.
