Hi!
Thank you, Justin. I added a couple of things but I'm not the one to write how to install Python or set a virtualenv. I only know how to use some editors and IDE, Python was there when I started playing with it... So maybe someone else should take that part and write it? Maybe a screenshot too? People from Python SIG looking at the article is a great idea! Thanks for your feedback.
Cheers, Sylvia
Hey Sylvia! Sorry for the delay in getting back to you here. Eduard (x3mboy) volunteered to help cover some more pieces of getting started in Fedora with Python. If it'll be alright, you two can be co-authors for this piece when we ship it out.
I'd like to try to get this one in the schedule for the week of Oct. 17. We'll check in again next week and see where we are on getting this one published. We'll also check in with the Python SIG then too.
Thanks again for leading the writing on this one!

Hey all! We also covered this article in today's meeting.
The article is well-organized and looking good. One thing that would
be
nice to have is some more details on setting up the environment
further
with an editor and other useful tools for getting started in Python. Some things that might be helpful to cover here would be:
(1) How to install Python (in case it was accidentally removed or missing for an unexpected purpose) (2) Searching for Python packages in Fedora (3) Setting up a Python virtualenv / editor environment (something specific that we could point users towards who want to get started writing Python code in Fedora)
We also thought we might get some members of the Python SIG to take
a
peek at this article before publishing since they might have a
vested
interest to make sure any cool, awesome tips that may not be obvious
are
included in an article like this too. :)
Hope this feedback is helpful, Sylvia! Let us know if you need any
help
or run into any blockers.
