Python IDE
Our Python IDE lets you create Python files and create your own apps.
This IDE is best when testing content from our courses.
If you want an editor that can handle the whole range of Python modules then we suggest a program like PyCharm or IDLE.
The IDE
- These IDE ACTION BUTTONS will let you run your code, share your work, upload your images, create files and delete files.
- The RESOURCE BUTTONS connect you to support, let you look up code in the reference, access your own notes and access tools, like color widgets, and show you shortcuts and files.
To learn more go to our Guide to the Resource Buttons - This is the TEXT/CODE EDITOR where you write your Python code and #comments.
- The CONSOLE is where you can see the output of your work after you have run your code.
- The final box is the FILE EXPLORER
Save files with .py
extension
Make your file a Python file by saving with the .py
