Unbundling and Deprecating Low-Usage Plugins in PyCharm - The JetBrains Blog

PyCharm plans to unbundle and deprecate several low-usage plugins beginning with version 2026.2, including Data Wrangler, Hugging Face, Google Colab, Spark and PySpark support, AI Playground, AI Agents Debugger, dbt, and Databricks. JetBrains says the change is intended to reduce maintenance demands, keep the IDE responsive, and focus development on features with broader adoption among Python developers. Affected plugins will remain available through the JetBrains Marketplace for PyCharm 2026.2, and their source code will be moved to an Obsolete Plugins repository so users and community maintainers can build and install them manually. Beginning with PyCharm 2026.3, the PyCharm team will no longer publish compatible plugin versions, although additional low-usage plugins may be handled similarly in future releases.
