What do you want to automate?

My guesstimation is that there's 90%+ chances that what you want to do can be done with Python.
But, as wavic said, the more detailed answer you would like to get, more detailed information we will need on what you want to do.

Task automation for windows and Linux
for exemple importing RSS of specific websites , Empty recycle bin weekly
sending an email contant system informations monthly
a lot of ideas in automation ...

Can make a example.
From command line install,these are Python job scheduling for humans and winshell
pip install schedule
pip install winshell
import schedule
import time
import winshell

def empty_recycle_bin():
    winshell.recycle_bin().empty(confirm=False, show_progress=False, sound=False)

# Test run delete every 10 sec
schedule.every(.1).minutes.do(empty_recycle_bin)

# Once a week
#schedule.every().sundat.at("02:15").do(empty_recycle_bin)

while True:
    schedule.run_pending()
    time.sleep(1)

I Am generally interested in automation, so I can create something like "terminal" in windows, that content mini-scripts of automating tasks
Thanks ALL for your attention ! I will read "Automate the Boring Stuff with Python" and go on for creating this tool :)
