Thonny is an integrated development environment for Python that is designed for beginners. It supports different ways of stepping through the code, step-by-step expression evaluation, detailed visualization of the call stack and a mode for explaining the concepts of references and heap.[1]

Features

  • Line numbers
  • Statement stepping without breakpoints
  • Live variables during debugging
  • Stepping through evaluation of the expressions (expressions get replaced by their values)
  • Separate windows for executing function calls (for explaining local variables and call stack)
  • Variables and memory can be explained either by using simplified model (name → value) or by using more realistic model (name → address/id → value)
  • Simple pip GUI
  • Possibility to log user actions for replaying or analyzing the programming process

[2][3][4][5]

Availability

The program works on Windows, macOS and Linux. It is available as binary bundle including recent Python interpreter[3] or pip-installable package[6]. It can be installed via operating-system package manager on Debian, Raspberry Pi, Ubuntu and Fedora.

Reception

Thonny has received favorable reviews from Python and computer science education communities[7][8][9]. It has been recommended tool in several programming MOOCs[10][11]. Since June 2017 it has been included by default in the Raspberry Pi's official operating system distribution Raspbian[12].
