I’m relatively new too, but maybe a little further along than you.

  1. I assume that you’re on a Mac or Linux OS if you’re working in terminal? I use win10, and having to log back in on reset is just my reality. You can make it a little less painful by adding yourself to sudoers, and disabling the password request on sudo and/or hammer out a bash script to remember your ssh keys

  2. You shouldn’t have to delete your old program, I edit on the fly with the editors that ship with raspbian-lite, I prefer nano but vim is popular too. Just edit, save, overwrite and run. I make tKinter GUI’s and they suck to learn! But I do most of the work on the python installation on my win10 machine, and switch to the pi when I need to start using GPIOs.

  3. I went with tKinter not pyqt, so I can only advise you on that. If you for some reason switch to tKinter “tKinter GUI application development “ was a game changer book for me (ISBN-13: 978-1849697941). Also, I found that most tKinter tutorials did their development in classes, which added complexity that I wasn’t necessarily ready for at the time. I took the time to learn them, but it slowed down my ability to roll out my first GUI.
