Review on Komodo IDE by Charles Butler

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Excellent Python Development Environment

We use it in our daily work to build apps with node JS framework Angular/ReactJS / React Native using AWS API as backend service.I like that I can set different configurations depending on projects - server or desktop configuration which save much time when you need something specific - especially at startup stage after fresh computer installation. There are not too many functional tools available but nothing bad by them. For now we still working only natively without integration (we try). It's very hard to have good development environment and proper debugging and code coverage while writing JS codes under heavy load from clients website. This makes testing slow process with lot of failes since tests takes a long period of time before getting accurate results. The biggest problem is how to make this IDE behave same way (or similar) if used locally as well where sometimes due to heavy traffic your own script does get hanged because another processes runned out memory limit etc., so all of us are struggling there a lot. Using Kodeine helps me solve my problems. Before learning and use Kodeinea i was suffering a big times during local setup in my home network, even just starting from scratch new pc install would hang up almost 30 minutes till finished - then running web scripts (even simple ones such as jsfiddle js script examples ) which were Ease of use, has a simple interface that is easy to learn. The code completion feature is very helpful when writing code. I am using it mainly for python. Although I do not use it often, I find it a great tool. It is easy to use and has everything you need for python development. I have not found anything that I dislike. It is a great tool for python development. I use it mainly for python development. For other languages, I use the command line.
