Is there a javascript's window like object in python?

Question

I mean in javascript it is possible to create a variable accessible by everywhere in everyfile by assigning property to window object:

window.myVar = 'hello'

And use it like:

console.log(myVar)

browser 'window' object equivalent in Python? [closed] doesn't answer my question because assigning to globals() doesn't make it accessible from other files.

(I know global variables are bad)

You could create your own God-object that you assign to. Just create a class (or use a dictionary), place that in a file, then import the file and use that object as needed. [`SimpleNamespace`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/types.html?highlight=namespace#types.SimpleNamespace) may be a good tool to try. — Carcigenicate, Jun 07 '21 at 15:45

Don't think there is something like that for python, but you can consider sending the variable value from one file to another when needing to process the data. — Tom Lee, Jun 07 '21 at 16:42

You can assign them to __builtins__:

main.py

__builtins__.my_var = 'Hello!'
import other

other.py

print(my_var)

Outputs: Hello!
