Wing IDE
A Python IDE for AI-agent development with a full debugger, editor, and testing tools.
Wing is a Python IDE from Wingware that combines an intelligent editor, debugger, unit testing, and project management with AI agent development tools. It supports work across scientific and data analysis, web development, animation and games, desktop, and embedded Python, including remote hosts, VMs, containers, and clusters. A non-AI edition, Wing Classic, provides the traditional IDE without agent integration.
Wing 12 adds Claude Code integration, a Tasks tool for planning, queuing, and tracking agent work, and MCP servers that give agents access to code analysis, unit testing with coverage, breakpoint debugging, and an annotated review workflow. Other capabilities include conditional and multi-process debugging with an interactive Debug Console and data viewers, auto-completion, refactoring, code navigation, and unit testing for unittest, pytest, doctest, nose, and Django. Project management covers virtualenv, Poetry, uv, pipenv, conda, and Docker environments, with Git, Mercurial, or Perforce revision control.
Wing is packaged as Wing Classic and Wing Pro, licensed per developer with multiple installations allowed on supported operating systems. Wing Pro includes the AI agent tools and requires a Claude Code subscription. A 30-day free trial of Wing Pro is available without email or credit card, offered as three 10-day trials that can be paused and resumed. Perpetual licenses include bug fixes and minor updates for the purchased major release; annual license holders and those covered by Support+Upgrades receive email support and upgrades to new major releases.
