Windows equivalent of sl4a

Question

I'm teaching myself Python and have been experimenting with sl4a to interact with Android features like GPS and text to speech with codes like

import androidhelper

droid = androidhelper.Android()

location = droid.getLastKnownLocation().result

location = location.get('network', location.get('gps'))

and

import sl4a

droid = sl4a.Android()
droid.ttsSpeak("Hello World.")

I've been searching for a similar Python API module to access Windows 10 features on a PC but it seems to be much more complex.

Is there a relatively simply way to accomplish what I'm trying to do?

Thanks for the edit, magicandre1981. I'll work on entering code properly. — user8211465, Jun 26 '17 at 22:47
If you're looking for an API recommendation, Software Recommendations SE is a better choice, but make sure you read their help center before posting because they have strict requirements. — EJoshuaS - Stand with Ukraine, Jun 27 '17 at 05:00

As far as TTS is concerned, use gTTS.

For geolocation, use any of the tons of RESTful APIs like FreeGeoIP. Next parse the JSON returned and you're good to go!
