One App, 2 different IDEs for same app project - share Claude Code across both the IDEs

I have a Django application to be used only as REST API endpoint application and a NextJS application for front-end.

appName
   |- backend
   |- frontend

What best works for opening 2 IDEs - PyCharm Pro for backend and WebStorm for frontend - such that my Claude Code extensions work seamlessly across the two ?

I want to be able to prompt in PyCharm terminal a question for which it should be able to reply even by looking at code in the frontend.

Or should I open appName as a whole in PyCharm Pro ? But then, that defeats the purpose of using WebStorm, right ?

Hi Anjanesh

My advice would be to use two IDEs for backend/frontend and a claude.md file in appName folder describing the project structure so claude has context for both your folders when being opened in pycharm or webstorm.

appName
   |- backend
   |- frontend   
   |- claude.md

Hope that helps.

Kind regards,
