- Spyder (formerly Pydee) is an open source cross-platform IDE for scientific programming in the Python language. Spyder integrates NumPy, SciPy, Matplotlib and IPython, as well as other open source software.
  In comparison with other IDEs for scientific development Spyder has a unique set of features - cross-platform, open-source, written in Python and available under a non-copyleft license. Spyder is extensible with plugins, includes support for interactive tools for data inspection and embeds Python-specific code quality assurance and introspection instruments, such as Pyflakes, Pylint and Rope. It is available cross-platform through Anaconda, on Windows with WinPython and Python(x,y), on Mac OS through MacPorts, and on major Linux distributions such as Arch Linux, Debian, Fedora, Gentoo Linux, openSUSE and Ubuntu. Spyder makes use of Qt either through the binding PyQt or PySide. This flexibility is reached through a small abstraction layer called QtPy.

- QUOTE: Spyder is the Scientific PYthon Development EnviRonment:
  - a powerful interactive development environment for the Python language with advanced editing, interactive testing, debugging and introspection features.
  - and a numerical computing environment thanks to the support of IPython (enhanced interactive Python interpreter) and popular Python libraries such as NumPy (linear algebra), SciPy (signal and image processing) or matplotlib (interactive 2D/3D plotting).
- Spyder may also be used as a library providing powerful console-related widgets for your PyQt-based applications – for example, it may be used to integrate a debugging console directly in the layout of your graphical user interface.
