In this tutorial I'll walk you through the process of running your Python files and scripts via the VS Code (visual studio code) editor, instead of your regular Mac Terminal or cmd.exe on Windows OS.
We'll go ahead and install the latest version of Python from the official python.org website and also install the Python VSCode extension. After that we'll type some basic Python commands in VS Code Terminal in Python bash as well as create a separate Python project with hello.py file and execute it directly from the VSCode Terminal.
Running python from vscode terminal is a lot more convenient than doing it with your standard bash/cmd/terminal since you always have your vscode open when you're editing your code. So running python in vscode is ought to save a lot of time in the long run. Good luck out there!
