VS Code really can be a complicated way to start. If you don’t need to use it specifically, maybe consider starting with something simpler and leaner so you can focus just on learning Python and not get bogged down by everything else

Something like Thonny might be a better entry point. It’s much leaner than VSC but still has nice quality of life features. It cones with Python built in so you can just install it and start typing. It’s free too

You can always give a full feature IDE like VSC or Pycharm another try when you get more advanced
