HealthyStarfish45 the pycharm plugin is mainly for remote debugging, you can of course use it for local debugging but the value is just to be able to configure your user credentials and trains-server.
In remote debbugging, it will make sure the correct git repo/diff are stored alongside the experiment (this is due to the fact that pycharm will no sync the .git folder to the remote machine, so without the plugin Trains will not know the git repo etc.)
Is that helpful ?
