Learn to Code Python with Thonny
-
Thonny is an IDE for Python that strives to be simple, straightforward, and to educate you as you go with loads of information about what you are doing at every step. It's part of the Fedora repos and very easy to get using.
dnf install thonny
Try it out. Great way to get started learning Python programming.

@scottalanmiller Thank you, this is perfect for my home automation setup.
-
It's a nice little IDE. Very easy to use.
-
@scottalanmiller I really like the debug. I can step through my code and find my errors. Instead of trying to run it and waiting for it to error out.
-
Ha... One of the dependencies: python3-jedi ... package naming FTW.

Are you getting into a lot of programming / software development lately yourself?

Me? Yes, I am. I was a developer before I came to IT (dev since '89, IT since '94) and it is great to be back in it again. I've got Visual Studio Code open pretty much all day now! Loving it.
I've done around 100 commits just this week.

Meh, perhaps that was better asked in it's own thread.

The first insaller screen for Thonny is in morse code which is neat

I was playing with this when I saw it on the Fedora magazine. It’s pretty cool.

That's where I found it, too.

@scottalanmiller It really looks great, I normally copied my code to http://www.pythontutor.com/ to step through it but it only works for small to mid stuff.
@Tim_G this would really help out with learning Python

I am doing the tutorials right now.
Im on the simple math one.
