Current thinking is Thonny for S1/2 perhaps. Pycharm for N5+ and a MySQL server for AH.

@pycharm may be a good one for Higher and Adv Higher pupils. Unsure as to whether the free licenses are available for schools?.

I’m sure a lot of other Computing teachers in Scotland now looking at alternatives now that @Replit are deprecating Edu Teams as of tomorrow. Made such a great product and now the rug being pulled out midway through the academic year… @CompSciScot @stacshq.

Higher is maybe a bit more safer standard algorithms as it seems the AI generation relies (sensibly) on predefined functions etc. but file read/write is fairly as i would teach it :-(.

Unless the @replit AI can be disabled in teams for Edu looking to alternatives for teaching. Looking at probably back to IDLE (S1-S4) and PyCharm for H and AH. Probably just MySQL for DB - all free options but is anyone using alternatives?.
