What is Pydev?
Pydev is a plugin that enables users to use Eclipse for Python and Jython development
-- making Eclipse a first class Python IDE --
It comes with many goodies such as code completion, syntax highlighting, syntax analysis,
refactor, debug and many others. If you want more details on
the provided features, you can check here.
Pydev and Pydev Extensions are now products of Aptana, makers of the popular Aptana Studio,
Eclipse-based IDE for Ajax, Jaxer, Ruby on Rails, and PHP.
You can plug Pydev into Aptana Studio or both into Eclipse and use them side by side.
Aptana plans deeper integrations in the future. See the news.
Pydev Extensions
is a plugin that works with Pydev, providing many other features such as code-analysis,
code completion with auto-import, a much better implementation of go to definition,
remote debugging, 'quick-fixes', mark-occurrences, among others.
