Whats installed by the Coding Pack for Python

The Coding Pack for Python installs the key components you need to use Visual Studio Code for Python development. Specifically, it installs:

  • Visual Studio Code
  • The Python, Pylance, and Gather VS Code extensions
  • The Python runtime (CPython 3.8.5)
  • Useful Python packages
    • jupyter
    • numpy
    • sklearn
    • pandas
    • Matplotlib

Along with the tools and packages necessary for Python development, the Coding Pack also configures common user settings and PowerShell. This includes Python extension settings, such as the default interpreter and language server, as well as execution policies to allow for virtual environment activation in the terminal.

Note: If there was an existing version of Visual Studio Code installed on your machine, your settings.json will not be overwritten and youll need to configure Python settings yourself.
