"Python's interactive interpreter, also known as the REPL, has always been the quickest way to try out a snippet of code, debug an issue, or explore a third-party library. It can even serve as a handy calculator or a bare-bones data analysis tool. Although your mileage may vary, you typically start the REPL by running the python command in your terminal without passing any arguments:"
"That started to change in Python 3.13, which adopted a modern REPL based on PyREPL borrowed from the PyPy project. This upgrade introduced multiline editing, smarter history browsing, and improved Tab completion, while keeping the simplicity of the classic REPL. Python 3.14 takes the interactive shell experience to the next level, introducing two new features: Syntax highlighting: Real-time syntax highlighting with configurable color themes Code completion: Autocompletion of module names inside import stateme"
Python 3.14 improves developer ergonomics by enhancing the interactive shell with live syntax highlighting and smarter autocompletion. Syntax and runtime error messages are clearer and more actionable to aid debugging and reduce developer friction. The REPL remains a fast environment for trying code, debugging, and quick calculations, typically launched via the python command. Python 3.13 introduced a modern REPL based on PyREPL with multiline editing, smarter history browsing, and improved Tab completion. Python 3.14 builds on that foundation with configurable color themes for highlighting and import-aware code completion to further boost productivity.
