Python Tools for Visual Studio provides Python (PTVS) programmers with a development experience inside of Visual Studio. It is a set of components that extends Visual Studio. It supports editing, debugging, creating Python projects, an interactive REPL window, profiling, and participating in VS solutions.

PTVS enables developers to use all the major productivity features of Visual Studio to build Python code using either CPython or IronPython and adds new features such as using High Performance Computing clusters to scale your code.

However PTVS is not a Python distribution; it works with your existing Python/IronPython installation to provide an integrated editing and debugging facility.
