Python Shell

Python shell for your browser.

Python Shell is a powerful Chrome extension that brings a full Python 3.7.4 interpreter directly to your browser toolbar. Designed as a convenient tool for both testing Python code snippets and learning programming, it launches a drop-down window with a syntax-highlighted console.

Enjoy features like persistent console history between sessions, input navigation using arrow keys, and access to Python's standard library (excluding some graphic/GUI modules). Python Shell loads quickly for fast computations and also includes a link to an external chat for community support. Perfect for developers, students, and Python enthusiasts seeking an easy, accessible coding environment right in Chrome.

User reviews

Users find Python Shell useful for basic Python learning and commands on Chromebooks, praising its simplicity and accessibility. However, multiple reviews highlight significant limitations such as inability to write or run multi-line code, lack of support for external packages like numpy, stability issues after complex code execution, and missing features like dark mode. It's considered great for beginners but not suitable for more advanced or extensive Python programming needs.
