> I think the problem is that there are so many options, some more accessible to newcomers, some less. For example, I think Thonny is a nice entry level Python "GUI" And I think users tend to grow out of entry-level tools pretty quickly so it's hard for any one option to become universal. > But it's really hard to find what to start with from a google search. That's true, but I think it has a lot more to do with the quality of educational material for beginners than the simplicity or complexity of available tools.
