While PyCharm Pro might be the most popular IDE for Python development, the community version supports neither Django nor JavaScript . VSCode is a free opensource alternative which has pretty good Python support.

Python is supported in VSCode using an extension. A quick start guide on the extension can be found here. It has builtin support for unittest, pytest, and Nose.

You can find information about debugging Django using VSCode here. The extension does not have builtin support for Django UnitTests, but we can use pytest to run Django UnitTests. Please make sure that you have installed pytest and pytest-django. They can be installed using pip.
