Show HN: Lua Carousel, create little programs on desktop or mobile devices
Well, there is Cardstock, which is a Hypercard-like in progress written in Python (and which uses Python as its language rather than a Hypertalk-like). It seems a bit more modern in that it isn't going for the 1980s Mac aesthetic.

Welcome to CardStockPython!
Welcome to CardStockPython, a community for users of the CardStock python programming environment! CardStock is not yet at 1.0, but it is getting close, and is already very usable. I've been using it to teach python programming, and prototype and build my own stacks. Please check it out, download it, try out the examples, and start building your own stacks!

Help
i was wondering if someone could help me figure out how to install this (https://codewith.mu/) python editor on the steam deck. Or if you have any other suggestions for better editors.

How do I make a light flash?
You literally plug the microcontroller into your USB on your PC and it shows up as a teeny-tiny USB flash drive, with "main.py" as a file. Edit the file with any text editor (but I recommend using Mu as it has a built-in serial console to the Python engine, auto-complete, and syntax highlighting) and once you save the file, the microcontroller detects the change and reboots, running the new code.

What language should I teach my little sister
I recommend the Mu code editor because it's simple but has better UI than IDLE. But if they aren't going to be intimidated by its complexity, VS Code is good too. It sounds silly, but having a cool hacker-y looking IDE with colorful syntax highlighting does motivate people to code.

When or why would I want to move on from Mu?
I'm reading Automate the Boring Stuff with Python and he has you use and install Mu which is meant for beginners. Last time I attempted this book I was using VIM in the Linux terminal because I was trying to learn Linux at the same time (Mu kept crashing anyway). This time I'm using Mu like the book wants (although sometimes he says "type this in IDLE" which is confusing) and it is a lot easier learning Python this way: https://codewith.mu/
