Newbie: Application/programme to write code - lasek723 - Sep-15-2020

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?

Macbook Late 2011
I5 2.4gh
8gb Ram

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).
