Coding by yourself is fun when it works.
But when you don't know why your code doesn't work.... you don't know why it doesn't work.

Sharing Python code is not simple.
Other people need the same version of Python.. install the same libraries... run python in the CLI... then you need a way to share updates... then you might see errors....
Non technical person reading all that would be like ... "what did I just read?"

Using Cloud services like Google Collab notebook is one way to share code with other people.
But then you need to handle things like sharing secrets/credentials. This can be an advanced topic if sharing code with non-technical people.

Another way to share code with non technical people is Trinket.io but...
Sharing Python 3 code on trinket.io is a paid feature. (No f-strings...)

Elaine finds sharing code using Anvil's Py.space is a good solution. It's quite intuitive.
Still couldn't share csv files though.
