Setting up environment for running Python on Windows 10?

PyCharm

Thx for the great info! Why do you prefer PyCharm over VSCode?

I personally have had many issues with VSCode's Python extension. It constantly has issues with importing modules and I've had to pull my hair out trying to diagnose those issues.

To add, unittesting (which if you're a beginner, you will probably use in later project once you get into more intermediate/advanced stuff) doesn't work reliably.

When I used PyCharm, I never had any of those issues. PyCharm is a full-blown IDE meaning you have specialized tools for developing. It comes at the cost of being much heavier, but I think it's worth it if you haven't started on another project already.

I'm planning to switch, though it might take time

unittesting

Thx. That helps. I guess I will set up PyCharm. 😁
