Recap and Next Steps

A quick recap of what you set up, and where you go next.

What You Learned

  • You installed Python and confirmed it (python --version on Windows, python3 --version on macOS and Linux).
  • You installed VS Code with the Python and Ruff extensions.
  • You set up a clean, readable editor: the One Dark Pro theme, Material file icons, and our course settings.
  • You downloaded the course repo from GitHub and opened it in VS Code, so every demo, practice problem, and project file is already on your computer.
  • You now have a setup you will reuse in every section that follows.

With your environment ready, you are all set to start writing and running Python in the next section.

Section 02: Variables and Data Types. Write your first Python program, add comments and print output, then store and label data with variables and Python's basic data types.
