How to add Python to Visual Studio 2017

I installed Visual Studio Enterprise 2017. I couldn't find how to add Python there. So I had to install Visual Studio Preview 2017 with Python (as they advise here). So now I have 2 installations of VS 2017 which is not good. Is there any way to install python support to VS 2017(not preview)?

You can find the Python development workload by selecting the Workloads tab and scrolling down to Web & Cloud. Once selected, you can check additional optional components under the Summary to the right.

As of 5/6/2017 the only way to use the python tools in visual studio 2017 is through the preview channel.
