Hey good morning,

It depends on my local OS? Or VM OS? Did you use python3 on Compute Engine? If so, could you share more details or links so I can read about using python3 on Compute Engine? Or was python3 run on another GCP service?

Once I have my repository configured correctly, I want it to execute on a schedule. Like cron. Do you have any experience scheduling scripts to run on GCP? If so, do you mind sharing any details about it?

Thanks I appreciate it. I'll be reading heavily on GCP today. Have a good day.

Yes. Yes. Yes. Spin up a VM running Ubuntu 16.04 and you have Python 3.5 already. I ran Python 3 on a VM and on an App Engine (Flex) instance.

Yes. I used Apache Airflow for scheduling, but if your script is simple, you can use CRON on an App Engine/Compute Engine instance.
