LEGO BOOST MOC on Android or Windows (lemmy.world)

Is it possible to create my own programm-sequences for LEGO BOOST MOCs on Windows PC?
Is there an APP for Windows, which I can use to connect?

Or is it just possible with smartphone/tablet? If yes: Which App can I use instead of the LEGO BOOST App? (because the LEGO BOOST App is just for the 5 plans from Lego and there is no creative mode)

Maybe you could use pybricks (for coding in pythona as the name suggests)? It seems to flash the brick with new firmware but according to them it's easy to restore.
EDIT: apparently pybricks does block programing as well

I personally don't have a BOOST but instead an ev3. For my beloved ev3 I've been using ev3dev, which runs Linux on the ev3 brick. But from what I know the BOOST barely has any processing power of its own so something like that would (probably) not be possible for the BOOST.
