Set Up PowerShell for Python

1. Install Scoop
Scoop is a command-line installer for Windows -- it's like Homebrew for Windows. It installs programs from the command line with a minimal amount of friction. More info about scoop is available here: https://gist.github.com/andrew-rietz/66e4ebcf96f85b6618b078ebe00104b1
To install, open PowerShell and execute the following command:

iex (new-object net.webclient).downloadstring('https://get.scoop.sh')

2. Use Scoop to install some awesome helper applications
We'll use Scoop to install a couple applications: posh-git and starship. Posh-git adds a lot of the convenience features you get in git bash directly into PowerShell (autocompletion, etc.). We'll also install starship.rs: a customizeable prompt for many of the common shells (Bash, Fish, Zsh, PowerShell).

Customizing Your Powershell

Create a Powershell Profile

Check if a profile already exists:
Test-Path $profile
If the result was 'False' then you don't have a profile yet. Create one:
New-Item -path $profile -type file –force

Create a non-versioned file. Add a new file to your project directory (i.e., secrets.py), reference that file from your setting files, and add the 'secrets' file to your .gitignore list.
Use environment variables. Pass environment variables to your process and then retrieve them with your settins file.
