Re: Switching from Linux to Windows for development of Django applications

are you doing python or windows development?

python development on windows shouldn't be much different, you have virtualenv and the same pycharm

some packages that requires compilation could be a headache, the easier path is to get a binary and use easy_install to install inside the venv

Hi,

For reasons outside of my control I have to switch from Linux to Windows for Django development and was wondering if any Windows developers had any tips?

On Linux I make heavy use of pip and virtualenv to make sure that my packages are kept separate from the system packages. I'm thinking about moving all my development to Python 3.4 which includes a version of virtualenv. How does this work on Windows? Do you just install packages normally using the command line into these environments using pip as you would on Linux?

I'm also thinking about using PyCharm for my development since I can get a student license for it which seems like a good deal to me. Does that also support Python 3.4 virtualenvs?

If anyone can post information on their Windows development work flows I'd be very grateful since I'm pretty new to Windows development work.

Thanks in advance.
