Wing Python IDE

"Best Python IDE"

"The debugger and code navigation tools are some of the best features in Wing Pro. It is very easy to trace problems through complicated code. It is easy to jump to areas of code that you need to find. The editor is theme-able and many of our team work in 'dark mode' -- but not everyone. The support is also great. Issues get responded to quickly and fixes pushed within days.

We are a specialized engineering company that writes desktop applications for engineers to perform process simulation and related data analysis. We have been using Wing Pro for the past decade with a small team of developers. We could not be happier with the product and the support!"

-- Anthony Floyd, Engineering Lead at Convergent Manufacturing Technologies, Inc.

"I highly recommend Wing Pro"

"I've been using Wing Pro as my main development environment for 10 years now.

I'm a big fan of Wing. I've used it for my open-source projects, my client projects when I was working as a freelancer, and now I use it at my work in a corporate environment. I do Python programming almost exclusively, so its Python-centric approach is a good fit for me.

The debugger is first-class. It works on multi-process, multi-thread programs. You have your breakpoints, watches, step commands and everything you can expect from a modern debugger. Remote debugging is supported, which is especially crucial in a corporate environment, where you're debugging code that runs on different machines. They've recently added advanced features like recursive debugging, which helped me do some deep troubleshooting at my job.

The editor is great. It's got VI and emacs mode and it's extensible with scripts. It has lots of useful tools (like showing documentation, refactoring, diffing, Python shell, etc.) which I spread across 2 big monitors.

The support staff is great. I've made many suggestions and requests for improvement to them over the years, and they've implemented many of them. Bugs are fixed quickly.

Overall, I highly recommend Wing Pro!"

-- Ram Rachum, Python consultant and open-source developer
