   The Sources for Pharo (by carolahp)

   

   Smalltalk also did this. These days my impression is the most active tendril is https://pharo.org/.

   What I find especially interesting about that relative to this Python distro is that the Pharo executable runs in a host OS (e.g. whatever your daily driver is) and can maintain different image files for different Pharo system states. So not only do you have the integrated language/OS (which is very cool on its own), but you also have something that feels like Docker containers.

   And it even goes beyond containers because those image files really are the state of the system at the time they're saved, which means you can ask for that file in a bug report and get guaranteed bug reproduction, which is pretty incredible.

4. MicroPython

   MicroPython - a lean and efficient Python implementation for microcontrollers and constrained systems

   

   Like MicroPython [0]? I use that for a few hobby projects.

   It works fairly well for all the little things, like the weather station I built with it. Being able to drop to REPL and rewrite functions on the fly is a little magic, too.
