what you want to make.
Start with a script. Add data, reusable code or a little help from AI. Here is how the features fit into real work.
Write and run
Keep the conversation with your code going.
Know what happened
The console brings output and errors next to the code you are working on. Print an intermediate value to understand a calculation.
Keep your work organised
Name your files around what they do. On Mac, bring a project folder into the workspace; on mobile, keep useful pieces as snippets.
Packages on Mac
Give your script new abilities.
A library is code you can reuse. The Mac app includes popular libraries for tables, arrays, charts, images and web requests.
Use the package manager to add supported pure-Python packages. You can focus on the part of the script that answers your question.
