One path to connecting a Python script to a COM application on Windows
STEP 1: Python on Windows What to install Download and install WinPython from https://winpython.github.io. I researched Python on Windows and in very short order understood that WinPython is the way to go. While it’s stated audience is scientists, data scientists and education, it fully serves the needs of personal projects. Also, it is available as a portable distribution with no requirement to register with Windows. This checked all the boxes.

Pip 23.1 Released - Massive improvement to backtracking
Feel free to share the resolver you wrote and we can test it on real world scenarios that are very difficult, here's a fun one that I remember: https://github.com/winpython/winpython/blob/master/Qt5_requirements64.txt

What you guys use to process data? Excel? r? python?
You equally are barred from e.g., WinPython which can work without an installation into the OS, too? Then - mechanically speaking - it wouldn't matter that the USB ports are permanently plastered with some polymer.

Jupyterlab Desktop
Thank for answering. I understand that the interpreter situation can be annoying. There is WinPython [0] to circumvent that to some degree. I feel like if I don’t do it the „VSCode and py-file“ way, it’ll be more and more difficult to keep everything together when teaching about modularity and putting functions in helper scripts, putting tests in other directories and such. I think it’s just because I got used to using VSCode and not Notebooks although I’ve used them for a while.

Is there python based electron available? [electronPython]
I don't believe that there is a version of Electron without Node.js and JavaScript. That said - there are several ways to run Python code from Electron, e.g. the python-shell module. See https://github.com/extrabacon/python-shell. So, you could have an Electron wrapper and front end, and use Python for all the back end code, if that would work for you; but I don't think you could avoid JavaScript altogether.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing WinPython and python-shell you can also consider the following projects:
