Python

Kythia Workspace provides an automated, seamlessly integrated Python environment without the need for manual system configurations.

  1. Go to Runtimes -> Python
  2. Select your desired version from the dropdown menu and click Install
  3. Kythia will download the official Python binaries directly to your local environment.

Kythia automatically manages the system environment for you. When you activate a specific version of Python via the UI, Kythia injects its executable directory directly into your current terminal session’s PATH.

This means you can immediately open a terminal within Kythia and run the standard commands (like python, pip) without conflicts or having to restart your computer.

Your installed Python versions are stored safely at:

C:\kythia\runtimes\python\{version}\

You can install multiple versions of Python simultaneously. The Kythia UI allows you to instantly hot-swap between versions for your current workspace session. Simply click the dropdown menu on the Python panel, choose a different version, and your terminal environment will update dynamically!
