Hello and welcome to this video.
In this video I'm going to walk you through some basic configuration setup of power charm on a Windows
based computer.
When you launch pied charm for the first time after installation you should get a screen like this.
They'll ask you to import pi charms settings.
This usually happens if you've got pi charm installed previously and you are installing maybe a different
version and you've got some set in save by default.
You should have to not import settings check so make sure that setting his checked.
And then just click okay to progress to the next screen.
So this is my pied charm icon just gonna click on it to launch it.
So the very first screen you get is the previous screen I showed you.
Once you've got that in then present you with this screen here just click the box says I confirm and
click continue.
If you click reject it will exit.
So make sure you click continue and that would give you the screen on data sharing.
Just click.
So don't sense so is asking you to send some data on your user page.
So for now clicked on send and it then tries to launch pie chart.
So get a few minutes to launch.
Once it launches we can begin the basic configuration set up part time is a very powerful idea for python.
And he has lots and lots of stuff in there.
So we're just going to focus on the very basic configuration settings to get you up and running with
pie chart.
So this is what you get.
Click on these configure option here and click settings and we just wait for it to come and then you
will you get the options like this.
So this is the setting speed on this page you can change different things.
You can save your appearance highlighted.
This is the appearance interface where you can change stuff.
This is the default theme which is the background color you can see if you want to change.
You can change that.
So for example I want a darker theme.
I click on that and that will give me a darker theme.
So if I click apply you can see the name has changed to a darker view.
So they are different configuration settings here.
If you want to do different things.
If for example I've got the editor here the editors where you write your code there is an option here
called font if I wanted to change the size of my font.
If it tells you this is the current size I wanted to change it say for example to 20 in size and it
gives me what it will look like.
So again I can accept that and there is an OK button here.
I just click OK to accept certain I have not quite finished with the configuration I need to go back
in and click settings and what I want to do next is set up.
The project interpreter.
The interpreter is very important.
It is what interprets the code your right into a code that the machine can understand.
I'm just going to move this up a bit so you can see here and the bit interested in is this page here
that says project interpreter so I'm gonna click on it and that will give me this interface.
So here you can see here there is no interpreter selected so I need to add an interpreter so you can
see I've got a drop down here.
There's no interpreter so here in this sign here I can click add to add the interpreter so you can see
here is giving me some suggestion of where the interpreter could be.
I've got Python three point seven so it's pointing to that that directory.
So I want to accept that.
So I don't want to use a virtual environments I'm going to click on system interpreter all these settings
can always be changed later.
So he's got my interpreter selected as that Python three point seven.
What that means is that any code right here will be interpreted in this version of Python.
All right.
So I'm happy with that.
I'm going to click on this okay button and that will try to load the package list that I can use with
the interpreter.
So it's giving me I'm gonna be using Pip and set up tools so once I am happy with that I click on the
okay button here and that will start updating the Python interpreter once the interpreter has been updated.
You're back to the welcome screen here.
You go option to create a new project to open a project to checkout from version control.
So I'm gonna click this button to create a new project.
Click on that and it gives you the location.
This is very important where your project will be stored.
It gives you a fourth name of Untitled.
So I'm going to change that untitled and just typing pie.
Phone calls you can type in whatever name you like.
And then here on the project interpreter I'm gonna click on that to expand it to make sure I've got
the interpreter I need is a new environment using virtual environment.
I don't want to use a virtual environment at this moment so I'm gonna check this box that says existent
interpreter.
So I'm going to use this interpreter that I have which points to where my Python was installed.
I'm going to click Create and that will create the project.
So once the project is created you get the screen that says tip of the day.
This screen pops up every time you launch pie chomp and there's a checkbox here.
If you don't want it to show up just and check it.
But I recommend you leave it because he may have some useful tips.
You can just close it for now.
And this is the interface you get.
Thus the project has been created.
So I'm going to end this part of the video here.
We'll continue in part two where we will create a python file.
Thanks for watching.
Bye for now.
