Python IDLE vs. The Welkin Suite

IDLE is a good option to run small scripts directly on the console, and that's it. It is a good exit when you don't want or need to open a proper IDE like Pycharm.

It is well suited to development-oriented projects. I find it faster to use the native Salesforce UI for more configuration projects. There are a number of tools in the suite that I have not used and probably could get more value out of it, but it has served well as my primary IDE for the last few months.

• The best thing is the debug that incorporates.
• Friendly graphic environment.
• Provide keyword auto-fill.
• Color the command syntax automatically.
• Very configurable.

• Local History - Without having to setup GitHub this has been a time saver!
• AutoComplete
• Saves the entire project at once

Incentivized

• Too simplistic
• Could not find source revision management integration support
• Only basic debugging is available
• Does not have data-science-specific notebooks (but can be installed separately)

• It would be nice if IDE feature releases were timed to coincide with Salesforce releases (i.e. make Lightning Web Components available on the day they become available in Salesforce instances).
• The IDE can be a bit buggy especially when you have several windows of the IDE open to different Salesforce instances at the same time on one machine.
• Sometimes, when you click to retrieve your data too soon, before the program has a chance to ask you to connect to the instance, it can cause the IDE to freeze.

1-Ease of use: python IDLE is relatively ease to use,especially for developers familiar with python. Its simple and intuitive interface makes it easy to navigate and find basic features 2- learnability:python IDLE is relatively easy to learn especially for developers with prior experience with python or other programming Languages 3- efficiency: Python IDLE efficiency is limited by its basic feature set and lack of advanced tools.while it’s great for rapid prototyping and small scale developers

Python IDLE support is what the community can give you. As it is free software, it does not have support provided by the manufacturer or by third-parties.

In any case, for most of the problems that normal users can find, the solution, or alternatives, can be found quickly online.

As this IDE is made in Python, the support is the same group of Python developers.

In general, when you need support there is someone there to give you an answer. I think there could be an improvement in this area, but it's hard to provide a substantial amount of support for a product that is charging roughly $15 a month. Do I feel I get more than $15 worth of support value when I need to request it? Yes.

I chose python IDLE for its simplicity and ease of use, which made it ideal for rapid prototyping and small scale development future sets: while python IDLE offers a basic set of features, including syntax highlighting, auto completion and basic debugging tools Performance :python IDLE is relatively lightweight and doesn’t require significant system resources, making it an excellent choice for older machines or resources constrained environment

I have tried using the Developer Console, Microsoft's Visual Studio Code with the Salesforce plugins and also Mavens Mate along with Sublime. The latter is deprecated. The rest are either options that are not as fully featured as The Welkin Suite or their setup time is much greater.

• In a short time, we were able to develop several ML models for various teams to make accurate decisions.
• Beginners can easily understand and adapt to GUI.
• We could automate several manual validation tasks and so could reduce human intervention.

• I have probably saved about three hours, on larger projects.
• It has definitely saved me the overhead of having to work with other IDEs that have heavier setup requirements.
