Run PyCharm for the first time
You can use the Toolbox App to run any JetBrains product. In the case of a standalone installation, running PyCharm depends on the operating system:
To run PyCharm, find it in the Windows Start menu or use the desktop shortcut. You can also run the launcher batch script or executable in the installation directory under bin.
Run the PyCharm app from the Applications directory, Launchpad, or Spotlight.
Run the pycharm.sh shell script in the installation directory under bin. You can also use the desktop shortcut if it was created during installation.
For more information about running PyCharm from the command line, refer to Command-line interface.
