   I like Thonny

   I started an on-line python course that used Pycharm as its basis. I had previously used Thonny to look at code for various programs. I found Pycharm to be over-featured for a beginner like me. Thonny seems much more on my level so I am continuing the course using it instead. And successfully I might add.

• Can my work till if I run Linux from a USB?

  Not likely, unless they were LOOKING for that kind of thing, which is also unlikely. However, many companies lock the bios to stop you changing the preferred boot order of the PC.

• Ask HN: Do you know any good coding platform for education?

  Thonny is designed speciffically for that purpose https://thonny.org . For beginners the main advantage is the easier install and maintainance, and the less intimidating/cluttered environment. IMHO it makes some decent tradeoffs, and it is an onramp for students evolving to VSCode or PyCharm when they feel ready. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago
