I want start with python but I don’t know what operating system and tools to use. I have a 6 RAM icore3 180 GB hard disk Notebook laptop running Linux mint. I plan to save up to Buy a PC in the future but for I have to make due my old laptop

I am also wondering how does the programming market look like in terms of operating system. Does it matter which operating system you use? In terms of programming institutions (universities bootcamps, etc…), do each institutions have its own preference or does it let its student choose?

    Depends, What kind of programming are you interested in and what do you want to do with it?

    • Low level microcontrollers (PLC’s, Robotics, Control systems, ROS, Automation, etc)

    • Higher level systems (Software Engineering, Enterprise Software, Networking, etc)

    • UX programming (Graphical User interfaces, human-machine interfacing, websites, etc)

    • Video Game Programming

    • AI Programming, Machine Learning, Prompt Engineering, maybe Data Processing, Vision systems, Simulations, etc

    All depends on what you want to do with your programming. You’ll need to narrow down and focus on what you hope to do with it.
