You can send text messages using the Twilio Python library, which allows you to create a REST client with your account SID and auth token. To get started, import the TwilioRestClient, instantiate it with your credentials, and then use the `create` method to send a message to a specified number, from a specified Twilio number, with a body of text. The process is quick and easy, and you can customize the code to suit your needs, such as by using environment variables or storing your credentials in a file. Once you've installed the Twilio library and run the code, you'll be able to send text messages and explore further features and tutorials provided by Twilio.
