Getting PyCharm to recognize python on the windows linux subsystem (bash on windows)

Question

While running Linux versions of python, pip etc. \"natively\" on windows is amazing, I\'d like to do so using a proper IDE. Since SSHD compatibility has not been implemented

Answer 1

I tried working with most solutions but the main issue is that I can't downgrade OpenSSH on Windows to something below 7.5 as is recommended by JetBrains.

Luckily they have solved this issue for us! I have downloaded the Early Access version of Pycharm 2018.3

This is however only available in the professional version.
