I've been using Jupyter and PyCharm for ML and VS Code for web dev, but started using VS Code with Python today just to try it out. It's pretty nice.

Search for the main Python extension and Jupyter extensions.

Plus install these linters and formatters (into your virtual environment).
Pylint
Flake8
Autopep8

I recommend monokai cobalt theme. Slick.

VS Code has deep Git support too so maybe this could replace PyCharm.

I'm also using VS Code with virtualenvs. You just tell it to use the source interpreter that is installed in your project folder. You ARE using virtualenvs/virtualwrapper right? ;)

p.s. How do you guys manage your actual .py files? You're not supposed to put them in your virtual environments of course so I'm curious as to how you guys maintain. I guess it only matters about the currently activated project (source bin/activate) since that is the environment that will be used when working in any .py file you open.
