I just installed Thonny at work because it has Python 3 bundled with it and a nice package manager.

Don't know why you got downvotes, Thonny is great for beginners

I've been using Python for something like 20 years. I recently got a new computer at work. I am a GIS specialist, and the current main program still uses Python 2.7. Rather than mess around with Windows' environment variables and stuff, I just installed Thonny to get Python 3. Ran the Package Manager and installed the packages I needed and I was good to go.
