PythonCE is a port of the Python∞ language to Microsoft Windows CE, including Pocket PC∞ devices.

If you are a Python developer then PythonCE can allow you to run your Python applications on a Pocket PC PDA or similar device with relatively few changes, because naturally it is more portable than lower-level languages such as C/C++. There are some limitations to this portability, so see the separate page on differences between PythonCE and other Python platforms.

If you are a Windows CE C/C++ developer then PythonCE can help to bring the advantages of Python to embedded platforms, especially Pocket PC-based PDA∞s, but also other Windows CE-based platforms. Some of these advantages include portability, rapid development, an extensive standard library plus many third-party extension modules, and the robustness of an interpreted language.
