PyCharm 2026.2: new debugger, rust plugin & improved multi-project support

PyCharm 2026.2 now uses debugpy as the default debugger for all Python projects and Jupyter notebooks, supporting the Debug Adapter Protocol.

Developers working with performance-critical Python code can leverage the new Rust plugin, currently in beta, to build Python extensions.

Multi-project setups for uv, Poetry, and Hatch are now enabled by default, enhancing project management and dependency visibility.

I use PyCharm regularly, so updates like this are always welcome. The switch to debugpy should make debugging more consistent, and the improved support for multi-project environments is something I'll actually benefit from. The new Rust plugin is also an interesting addition for anyone building high-performance Python extensions.
