New in 3.4 Pythonista now supports Python 3.10, so you can use structural pattern matching, assignment expressions (added in 3.8), and many other new language features and improvements in the standard library.

Python 2.7 is no longer included. The official PSF support for Python 2.7 has ended in 2020, so it simply made no sense to update it in 2023.

Shortcuts integration: You can now use Pythonista scripts as actions in Apple's Shortcuts app, without launching the app. The shortcuts module has additional functions to accomodate handling input/arguments passing data to other Shortcuts actions.

Improved documentation with modernized layout, dark mode, and additional content about third-party libraries.

Fixed an issue with the up/down arrow keys not working correctly in the editor.

Improved support for the Magic Trackpad (and other pointer devices) on iPadOS.

New text selection gestures in the editor for iOS 13+ (closer to system text gestures).

Added pandas and updated various other third-party modules to more recent versions.

Pythonista now requires iOS 12 or later.

Cool! Was just listening to a podcaster ask the guest if they remember how they got started with Python and got wondering how I would answer the question if asked.

My answer to myself: using Pythonista on my iPhone in spare minutes between classes or waiting in line at the grocery store. With the built-in documentation, iPhone-friendly editor, and fun built-in iOS specific libraries, I thought it was a great way to get started.

Definitely have wished there was a bit more community engagement by the author over the years, but every time I'm sure it's dead an update (or new version) comes out.

Phone users can have a little practical computing, as a treat.

Glad to see an update to Pythonista. It was beginning to look like a dead project, especially with all the spam in their forums.

OpenAI is in the site packages.
