1. Download and install VS Code.
2. Go on the extensions window on the left bar and type “Python” in the research field. You need to install the first one developed by Microsoft, click on the blue button to install it.

<aside> 💡 As I already installed it, the blue button is not here on the screenshot.

1. Create a main.py welcome script. To choose your conda environment, you need to press “Cmd+Shift+P” and search “Select interpreter”, then you need to choose your environnement, here “opensim”.

   

   

2. Go to the settings.json file and add this line. Then relaunch VS Code:

   "terminal.integrated.inheritEnv": false,
   "python.terminal.executeInFileDir": true,
   "terminal.integrated.defaultProfile.osx": "zsh",
   "terminal.integrated.env.osx": { "PYTHONPATH": "${workspaceFolder}/:${workspaceFolder}/.."}
   

3. Edit main.py:

   import opensim as osim
   print(osim.GetVersionAndDate())
   quit()
   

4. Run the code by using the play button on the upper right corner, you will see a message similar to this on the terminal at the bottom of the windows.
