BTW- also i want to add the following things
a python environment
VSCodium
JupyterNotebook
FileZilla
LibreOffice

i look forward to hear from you
Yours Otrott

Your system should already have a working Python environment.

@otrott, I hope you’re enjoying your journey on EndeavourOS.
You can search packages with this command in terminal:
pacman -Ss <package_name>
For example:
[triby@eos ~]$: pacman -Ss featherpad
# Output for that command
community/featherpad 1.1.1-1
Lightweight Qt plain text editor
With that output you know that the package exists on repositories and can be installed:
[triby@eos ~]$: sudo pacman -S featherpad
Other way is to use yay
as @dalto suggested in his answer, but, wait a minute, you can also use pacseek for search, select and install packages.
Very important: Before installing software, please be sure your system is up to date by executing yay
(no parameters).

while i want to run this command
yay -Syu featherpad vscodium jupyter-notebook filezilla libreoffice-fresh
i get back this respond
translated:
the system is not ready - there is something active - and “you have to wait”
What is aimed: i wanted to install filezilla - on the notebook…
What happens when you run sudo pacman -Syu
first, then yay -S filezilla
?
reboot and try again, and if the same warning come sup remove the lock…
sudo rm /var/lib/pacman/db.lck
Do you have any package managers / gui package tools installed?
