To program EV3 using Python, you will need four items: a Windows PC, a microSDHC card, a miniUSB cable, and an EV3 Hub/Brick. You might also need a microSD to USB or SD converter to connect the microSD to your PC. Before you begin, make sure to install the necessary programs, which I have provided links for in the description. Start by creating a folder on your desktop to save the programs and files. Next, download and install WinRAR from the official site (link in the description). Then, visit the official LEGO site to download the EV3 Python Image. Once the download is complete, right-click the ev3-image file and choose "Extract Here" from the context menu. Afterwards, download Rufus Portable (link in the description) and save all the downloaded files in the same folder. Connect your microSD card to your computer and run the Rufus program. Select the extracted ev3.img file and ensure it is in .img format. Click "Start" and wait for the process to complete. Remove the microSD card from the computer and insert it into the EV3 hub while it is turned off. Power on the hub and wait for the booting process to complete. Return to your computer and download the Python installer. During the installation, ensure that you select the option to add Python to the system's PATH. Otherwise, you may need to reinstall Python. Once the installation is complete, right-click the Windows button, select "Run," type "cmd" in the dialog box, and press Enter.In the command prompt window, type "pip install pybricks" and press Enter. Wait for the library to be installed. Now, install Microsoft Visual Studio Code and launch it. From the extensions tab in Visual Studio Code, download the EV3 MicroPython, EV3Browser, and Python extensions. Connect your EV3 hub to your computer using a cable and select the hub in Visual Studio Code. This will enable you to program your robot using Python. To download the code to your robot, click on the download icon in the bottom left corner of Visual Studio Code. You can find documentation on pybricks' website for further reference.
