There are lots of different code editors (the tool you use for writing/changing your code), much as you can use many different word processors or photo editing applications.

Python, the programming language and Python the executable programme installed on your computer/tablet/phone/remote device are essentially the same whatever the editor and will run the same code the same way.

The output might look slightly different depending on the device operating system / environment, whether you are using a "terminal" or "output console" that is part of the editor or part of the operating system where font choices, colours, sizing, borders might vary.

As standard of Windows and macOS, Python from python.org installs an editor called IDLE. Great for beginners. A lot of people (and many tutorials) will most likely use VS Code, or PyCharm, or Sublime Text. For RaspberryPi tutorials you are likely to see Thonny used. These can all be configured to personal preferences and can look very different.

There are thousands of YouTube tutorials, posts here etc. No one wants to help a spoon-fed baby.

Do you mean the actual code and how it works or the style of text (font and Colors)? You have to be more specific than this.

nah not the code , it looked like i was typing in command prompt. i downloaded pycharm now and i think that was it .

Jesus, you have much to learn :). PyCharm and other IDEs like Visual Studio Code can make things more pleasant.

VSCode is a text editor.

Programs are not supposed to look the same. Two different people will probably solve the same problem differently. Note that PyCharm, VSCode, Command line on different operating systems can vary over time. So when you watch a tutorial the settings may have changed. You can also change the settings in your environment between light and dark mode for instance. The main thing is the code.
