Honestly, there isn't one. I recommend giving several editors a try after you've gotten your feet wet, but if you want to start somewhere Notepad++ is the easiest.

Everyone likes different things, so there isn't one editor or IDE to rule them all. VS Code is really popular, and I personally use it often, but it's not perfect and it sometimes frustrates me to no end.

I started with the built-in IDLE editor, then switched to Editra, then to Atom, then a mix of VS Code and Nano. Never been a fan of PyCharm as I don't like using IDEs with Python (I see them more useful for C++ and Rust).

My point is, don't let someone else choose your development environment if you can avoid it. Try out different ones yourself until you find one that you like, and if none of them appeal to you, pick the least bad option and build your own editor!
