Running Python Code in a Cloud IDE
#runningpython #code #cloudide #ide #ideas
At the end of this course, you'll be a professional Python developer and you'll learn how to use many
technologies. At the moment
if you are a beginner and want to get started right away and not to worry about different installations,
versions and operating systems, you can use a Python IDE
that runs in the cloud.
There are many such services, but my favorite one is Repel.
So open up your browser and go to replit.com
It's free
but I'd advise you to create an account because Reple is not just a simple editor, but a platform
that allows you to build and host your coding projects instantly with no setup.
All you need is a browser with an internet connection.
It has many features, including collaboration and sharing.
Let me show you how to use it.
I'm logging in.
Once I'm logged in, it will take me to my homepage.
I can create the new Reple, which is in fact a Python project, by just clicking on a blue button with
a plus sign on it.
Now, it's prompting me to select the programming language I'd like to use.
I find it useful also because you can code in almost any programming language, not only in Python.
Okay, I'm going to select Python from this dropdown list.
Note that there are also templates with prebuilt code in them to start easily.
I'm selecting Python and I'm giving it a name.
Now, it's creating the riple and it's taking me to the coding environment.
This is the coding environment.
What we see here, are the project settings section of file 3,
the run button,
the editor,
a console,
and the shell.
You can save your files, create a new folders, and organize your project as you wish.
You normally write their Python code in the editor, click the run button, see the output at the
console. For example, name = Andrei and then print a pair of parentheses and "Hello name".
