From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I started using PyCharm recently. I love being able to open and switch multiple terminals, access database, see code structure, tooltip on deprecated code and how to fix it, I also like jumping to declarations, inserting code snippets.

Could I do all of these too with vim or neovim?

Most certainly with plugins. There is a shit tone of them for basically anything you want. Learning all the keyboard commands on the other hand...
