ReleasesWhat’s New in PyCharm 2026.2
In PyCharm 2026.2, you can build Python extensions with the new Rust plugin and debug them using debugpy, which is now the default engine. Running external utilities is now managed through a redesigned settings UI for uvx, while multi-project setups are supported out of the box for uv, Poetry, and Hatch workspaces. This release also introduces an editor minimap, integrates the Pyrefly engine for faster type insights, adds AI project generation, and more.
