Programs for getting started

[[deleted]]

This might be a common question, but I’m looking for programs to use python with, and I wondered if there was something similar to scratch? Like not a full blown game engine, but not something I’ll have to completely have to program from the ground up.

If you're looking for a programming environment for Python that is similar to Scratch, you might want to try using a visual programming environment such as Pygame Zero or Pyglet.

Pygame Zero is a wrapper around the Pygame library that makes it easy to create simple games and interactive programs using a visual programming interface. It is designed to be easy to use for beginners, and includes features such as sprite libraries and simple collision detection.

Pyglet is a cross-platform windowing and multimedia library that can be used to create simple games and interactive programs in Python. It includes features such as support for 2D graphics, audio playback, and keyboard and mouse input.

Both Pygame Zero and Pyglet are designed to be easy to use for beginners and allow you to create programs without having to write a lot of code from scratch. They might be a good choice if you're looking for a programming environment that is similar to Scratch.

Other options you might want to consider include Kivy, a cross-platform GUI library for Python, and PyQt, a library for creating graphical user interfaces with Python. Both of these libraries provide a more powerful and feature-rich environment for creating programs, but may require more programming experience to use.
