PyScripter
PyScripter is a free and open-source software Python integrated development environment for Windows. It is built in Object Pascal and Python.
It originally started as a lightweight IDE designed to serve the purpose of providing a strong scripting solution for Delphi applications. Over time, it has evolved into a full-featured stand- alone Python IDE. It is built in Delphi using P4D and is extensible using Python scripts. Being built in a compiled language make it rather lightweight compared to some of the other IDEs. Currently, it is only available for Microsoft Windows operating systems.Features
