This interactive TUI app includes exercises and multiple-choice questions intended to test the understanding of beginner to intermediate level Python learners.

This app is available on PyPI as pythonexercises. Example installation instructions are shown below, adjust them based on your preferences and OS.

# virtual environment
$ python3 -m venv textual_apps
$ cd textual_apps
$ source bin/activate
$ pip install pythonexercises

# launch the app
$ pythonexercises

Note
If you are on Windows, using the Windows Terminal is recommended. See this issue for Virtual Environment commands and other details.

To run the app without having to enter the virtual environment again, add this alias to .bashrc (or equivalent):

# you'll have to change the path
alias pythonexercises='/path/to/textual_apps/bin/pythonexercises'

As an alternative to manually managing such virtual environments, you can use https://github.com/pypa/pipx instead:

$ pipx install pythonexercises
$ pythonexercises

As yet another alternative, you can install textual (see Textual documentation for more details), clone this repository and run the python_exercises.py file. You'll need to install textual[syntax] to enable syntax highlighting (see documentation for more details).

Adjust the terminal dimensions for the widgets to appear properly, for example 84x25 (characters x lines). Here are sample screenshots:
