Hello. I am Priyanshu Aggarwal from India and wanted to ask about the Processing with Python 3.8+ with JPype project. If I have understood correctly, we basically need to add an interface similar to the processing PDE to the Thonny plugin and make a guidebook for users with example codes doing different operations in the py5 language. Please correct me if I am wrong as I am interested in this project and would like to submit a proposal for the same.
