Python Forum

Hi there,

I have tried to download Xcode and Visual Studio. However, my MacBook does not support either application, as it's quite old.

Can anyone recommend an application/programme to download to practice/write code on?

Thanks

I like IDLE available at python.org, but there are a million options.
But the specs you posted should be able to handle both of the applications you mentioned. Perhaps find which version to download that will work for your mac.

I typically use Sublime Text (cross-platform; I also use the package Tabnine with it) although for complex projects I use Pycharm (also cross-platform, and amazing).

VS Code and then install python extension
