do you know if that goes for the python plugin for intellij IDEA too?

So is IntelliJ IDEA just as good for python development as pycharm and then some? or does pycharm have more or better "python" features because its specialized?

Are you saying that intelliJ has the features of pycharm and appcode? or am I misunderstanding?

Yes, it does, via plugins for PHP and Python. Based upon the other comments here, it seems the release cycle of plugins lags a bit.

I think you can go ahead and download them, you'll get a license later on that you can then apply. Someone please correct me if Im wrong.

Yeah, you can get a free 30 day trial of the "premium" IDEs, and you can enter in your license information at any point during the trial in the IDE itself.

This is correct and I believe the delivery of the license key can take from minutes up to 2 business days from ordering.

can you speak more to how this is built - even if its just at a high level?

Someone came up with a design. Someone else implemented the backend. We iterated on it for a bit and shipped it internally. Then we figured out the CDN situation, setup logging and metrics, and shipped it genpop today.

Can you tell me a bit about the CDN situation, especially what specific issue did you run into?

No issue, we just wanted to set something up as opposed to running directly from S3.

Ah nice!, easier to drive down the costs that way. Thanks.
