What is Python IDLE and How to Use the IDLE Shell

If you’ve recently downloaded Python onto your computer, then you may have noticed a new program on your machine called IDLE. You might be wondering, “What is this program doing on my computer? I didn’t download that!” While you may not have downloaded this program on your own, IDLE comes bundled with every Python installation. It’s there to help you get started with the language right out of the box.

This is a portion of a longer course.

IDLE is actually so simple and easy to use that i can’t move on to other IDEs like vscode. The others are full of invasive options and auto-completing stuff. IDLE is just plain simple. Plus now they we have line numbers.

How can I add extensions? I’m in the group that agrees pythons default idle is best and simple, but viscose has two specific features I want, the red line when you type something incorrectly and the auto completion of commonly typed words, how can I add an extension that could compensate for that
