Prefer the
App Store?

Get the store app with Python, its editor, libraries and tutorials. It has no Helper, so the Terminal, Python Console, debugging and Git are not available; features and purchase options differ from the free Mac download.

From download to first result

Build something today.

Python and the common libraries are already inside, so the first minute goes on code rather than setup.

Run something straight away

Open a bundled project and press Run. Python 3.11, pandas, NumPy, Matplotlib, Pillow, Requests and Beautiful Soup are in the download.

Twelve projects to take apart

A greeting, a guessing game, a quiz, an expense tracker, grade analysis, an energy dashboard, a document search engine and more. Seven need nothing but the Python in the app.

An assistant beside your source

Ask about the open file with a local Ollama model, Apple Intelligence on macOS 26, or your own Gemini or Anthropic key.

Explore AI assistance →

A learning section in the app

Six lessons, eight example scripts, seven short guides and a 31-chapter Python book, all in the Learn panel.

A Mac workspace you can arrange

Keep the tools you need
beside your code.

Put files on the left, output below and your assistant on the right. Resize the panels, hide them for focused editing or open a tool in its own window.

Find a function across the project and read it in context.

AI alongside your project

Ask about the code
in front of you.

Select a file and ask the assistant to explain a function, investigate an error or suggest a different approach. Keep its answer beside the source as you work.

Use a local Ollama model, Apple Intelligence on macOS 26 or later, or your own Gemini or Anthropic key. With a cloud provider the open file is sent along with your question.

Twelve projects come with the app

Open one.
Change it. Run it again.

Each bundled project is a folder with a README, source and tests. Start with Personal Greeting or the Py Editor Basics Lab, which use only the standard library, then work up to a desktop app or an image classifier.

Mac Desktop Studio builds Focus Studio, a task list and timer, with PySide6. AI Vision Lab trains a small PyTorch classifier on images it generates itself.

Those two need the free Helper and a project environment, and installing PyTorch downloads a few hundred megabytes. Follow the setup guide.

Python on iPhone & iPad

A place to write code.
Even away from your Mac.

Create and run scripts, keep reusable snippets and work with code and console together. On iPad, multiple windows give your projects more room.
