| A program in Python is stored in text files on the device's file system, as Python's source code is interpreted, not compiled, opposite to C++. A typical file extension for programs in Python is ''.py''. | A program in Python is stored in text files on the device's file system, as Python's source code is interpreted, not compiled, opposite to C++.

| In the context of IoT programming, both Python and Micropython share the same syntax and mostly the same libraries, so source code, in many cases, is portable. General hardware-related libraries like GPIO handling or timers are shared between those two Python worlds, and hardware-specific differences are minor compared to the Arduino framework.\\ | In the context of IoT programming, both Python and Micropython share the same syntax and mostly the same libraries, so source code, in many cases, is portable.

| * Simple code can be authored in the terminal using any text editor (e.g. Nano), as Python source files do not require compilation and are plain text ones. This is not very convenient, but it can help if no dedicated IDE and GUI are available, e.g., for rapid work remotely. | * Simple code can be authored in the terminal using any text editor (e.g. Nano), as Python source files do not require compilation and are plain text ones.
