you need to run this in command line using "python makeaddin.py". python command will only work if you added python.exe path in your windows environment path variables. Otherwise you need to give full path to python.exe. In VS code you can just run the file in top right corner there is a button
you might need to amend the makeaddin.py, depending your version of python. There is a print statement thats in "print variable" format. I needed to change mine to "print(variable)" format due to syntax change in Python versions
