What NINJA-IDE is

NINJA-IDE is a free integrated development environment for creating applications, with tools for managing Python projects. Its editor provides syntax highlighting, code completion, and assistance with imports and navigation. A code locator helps find project files, functions, and classes, while documents can show static and PEP 8 errors. Users can handle project files within the IDE, run a Python project or open file with one click, and render HTML files inside the application. Plugins can extend the editor and add functionality. The download page lists version 2.4 installers for Windows 10/11 and Linux distributions, but says the macOS app is unavailable there and offers source code only. Listed requirements are Python 2.7 and PyQt 4.7 or later. The project describes NINJA-IDE as GPLv3+ software and lists a mailing list and GitHub issues for questions and bug reports. The website says it is no longer run by the official authors. The free plan costs nothing.
