So far, you've been learning Python concepts—but to build real applications, you need a proper development environment. A good setup makes you faster, catches mistakes early, and lets you use tools that help you write better code.

In this module, you install Python and Visual Studio Code (VS Code), the editor you'll use for the rest of this learning path. You also learn how to manage packages with pip, run your first Python application from within VS Code, and get your first look at GitHub Copilot—an AI assistant that helps you write code as you type.
