Environment for Python development

Hello,

after succesfully deploying a c++ app to the ctrlX, I wanted to write a python app. My current setup is 
Windows 10 - Oracle virtualBox - ubuntu18.
In the samples it is already written that the crosscompilation is not possible for python and that the 
python app can either be developped on a machine with the suitable target architecture or a virtual machine that
emulates the hardware. 
What is the recommended way?
Can I develop a python snap using ubuntu20 on a raspi (64bit)?
Or are we restricted to ubuntu18 at the moment?

To setup and share preconfigured VMs is quite hard/bad in legal sight of view. But from the version 1.12 of the SDK for ctrlX AUTOMATION on we provide an instruction how to use an QEMU based development environment that can emulate amd and also arm processor architectures. See github.com/boschrexroth/ctrlx-automation-sdk for further information.
