The students I mentioned will all have a laptop computer, on which a real Python development environment will be installed. The thing about the smartphone is that, when they will launch an exercise on their computer, below the corresponding interface, which will be displayed in a browser, a QR

As I mentioned in my reply above, the students will have laptops to program in Python. They will work in a real development environment. The smartphone will only be used to access the applications they wrote, as if they were web applications. Note that it is possible, as indicated in the
