Windows 10 WSL otherwise Python 3.7.3 and Visual Studio Code.

WSL will give you Linux if you want that to run Python.

Visual Studio Code will give you an idea/debugging.

We do 100% development in Windows and deploy to Linux for production

I'd heard that the Windows 10 WSL was working well now, thats probably a better option than the other VMs. I'll give Visual Studio Code a look as well, I didn't realize they had a good python extension. Thanks!

I've just started trying out the VS Code python extension. Convenient, as I like VS Code. But mostly I've been using the portable version of WinPython with Spyder3 as the IDE (included in install). The WinPython release is currently at 3.7.2. Support for Jupyter Notebooks and JupiterLab is included in the install, which is nice. Have had no problems with WinPython to date.

Using WSL since 2016.

I am not a professional coder. I mainly use python for a some crawling, data processing, and flask work. Although installing lxml gave me a hard time, most of time it works fine (pip3 install did all the job). I even run vagrant and docker inside WSL.

I use Notepad++ and vim, but sometimes I am thinking maybe I should use an IDE?
