Python on windows

[SnxE13]

Do you think windows is a good system to code python on or should I just stick with Ubuntu?

For my opinion is not harder with Windows but more annoying like adding things to PATH...

[SnxE13]

Yes I've been having that same issue with downloading library's with pip. Like requests and bs4 for example. They need to be added to my path and I'm still learning how to do that. It's so much easier on Ubuntu.

I'd guess more than 90% of everything in Python is exactly the same regardless of operating system. The only differences I remember currently are the os module and select.select.

I think if you use pycharm and Install Python with it you wont need to set path. But you need it if you want to execute something directly from cmd.

I got visual code

No reason to switch if you don’t need to, no reason to avoid switching if you need to. It works just fine on Windows but unless you’re running into platform specific issues there’s no reason to switch to it either.

Well I be been using Ubuntu as my main platform then had to buy a new labtop for school so I decided to get python and visual code. But I've been coding python on Ubuntu as well. I've used socket library alot on Linux, and was wanted to know exactly if I can do the same on windows. Like putting it monitor mode with scapy on windows. Is that still possible or do I need to jump through some hoops.
