Important:Eclipse 2021-03 (4.19) is broken and cannot be used with PyDev due to https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=571990, so, if you use PyDev, please keep to Eclipse 4.18 (or get a newer if available).
PyDev is a plugin that enables Eclipse to be used as a Python IDE (supporting also Jython and IronPython). It uses advanced type inference techniques which allow it to provide things such as code completion and code analysis, besides providing a debugger, interactive console, refactoring, tokens browser, django integration, etc.
