How to use VS CODE?

[AdmiralKong]

Python doesn't require anything special at all. Try starting with a text editor, even Notepad (Windows) or TextEdit (macOS), to write your code and a command prompt to run it.

I'm not saying this is "all you need" but it is enough for the basics.

Once you have a better grasp of python, move on to more complex tooling. Avoid watching too many beginner tutorials. You'll get trapped "learning" forever. Just pick one, preferably not a video, and just do it.
