It’s pretty easy though. You open a Python file, it asks if you want Python plug-in installed. Then you’re pretty much done except specifying your virtualenv. If you have linter settings it will ask if you want the linter installed.

The big thing with Jetbrains is the cost. PyCharm is $9-$25/month and VSCode is free

And then, despite automatically identifying the local python venv, install the linter elsewhere so it doesn't work.

But it integrates it wonderfully when you install the linter yourself, or if you use the bundled pylance.
