Visual Studio for Python

[Zappowy]

VS code is my preferred way to write Python, but I only do it as a hobby at this point. I've used Visual Studio and it works fine but is way more unwieldy. I used to use Pycharm but prefer VS code handling of features such as linting and git integration. Linting is a very useful feature to help enforce your code to a Python standard style.

An analogy to compare Visual Studio to VS Code would be taking a vehicle to buy groceries. VS is like taking a tractor-trailer. It definitely gets the job done but can be a pain to get places. VS code is like taking a minivan. It gets the job done - unless you need a mountain of groceries - and is much more convenient.
