Atom IDE [SELF-SOLVED]

Question

Because I have had quite bad luck with Pycharm, is Atom a good IDE? I have completed all the steps but Pycharm keeps saying that there is no interpreter. The one time I actually linked it up to "Python.exe" it said no such file or directory. My second choice is Atom. What experiences do you have with Atom and is it suitable for programmers who work with Python and have started to look at back-end web development?

Answer 1

If PyCharm don't want to work... Give it one more chance with tutorials.
When try pyScripter.

Answer 2

I have used atom for general python programming but not often. However, my experience is good with atom and as pycharm have same problem on my pc too.

Answer 3

UPDATE: Pycharm still not working, but Notepad++ is. I guess that will do. I got what wanted: a good light-weight IDE that is fast. I am closing this problem as solved.

Answer 5

Atom is a very good IDE. The UI looks super clean to me and is handy for the mainstream languages. I've used it for small Python programs before and also for HTML & CSS code.
However PyCharm would still be the best solution since it's specifically made for Python. Try looking up tutorials, re-install the program, etc.
