3๐ **Episode 15b: Enhancing the Main System and Loader System** ๐
In this episode, we continue to refine and expand our Prompt Development Environment (PDE) by focusing on the Main system and Loader system. Our goal is to ensure that the correct version of Python is installed and that our dependencies are managed efficiently using Poetry within our `initialize.bat` script. ๐โจ
Our agenda includes:
- **Building Out the Main System**: Enhancing the Main system to check and install the correct version of Python on the machine.
- **Dependency Management with Poetry**: Utilizing Poetry to set up and manage dependencies within our `initialize.bat` script, leveraging the power of Python's virtual environment (venv).
- **Loading Screen Development**: Creating a loading screen to improve user experience during the initialization process.
- **New --check Argument**: Adding a new `--check` argument to our `initialize.bat` script to verify if Python is installed. If not, the script will prompt the user to install Python 3.9.13, continuing the installation process upon confirmation.
- **Dialog Integration**: Implementing a dialog to inform users about the Python installation requirement and guide them through the process.
Join us as we tackle these enhancements and continue to optimize our PDE for a smoother and more efficient development experience. ๐ #PythonVenv #Poetry #DependencyManagement #LoadingScreen #InitializationScript #LiveCoding #SoftwareIntegration
