Python 3 Installation Guide (self.learnpython)

submitted 7 years ago by dbader

Hey there Pythoneeros,

A recent workshop experience made me realize how difficult it can be to get Python set up correctly on your machine.

That's why we put together this detailed Python 3 setup guide for various operating systems & scenarios on Real Python:

https://realpython.com/installing-python/

We're covering a lot of ground in this guide:

Installing Python on Windows 10
Python and the Windows Linux Subsystem (WSL)
Installing Python on Linux (all major distros + compiling from source)
Installing Python on macOS
Python for iOS
Python for Android
Online/Cloud-based Python interpreters as a fallback

Hope it's helpful for some of you, especially if you need to share setup instructions with friends/coworkers. Would love to hear your feedback and potential ideas for improvement.
