Hello! What do you consider “part sun”…shade some parts of the time/sun parts of the day? Or a little bit of sun all day? Some of my plants are not next to a window, but are in rooms with decent natural light…does that work?

Yes natural light next to a window counts for part sun.

Full sun is outside in direct sunlight all day. Part sun is outside in direct sun half the day. Shade is outside and not in direct sun lights. These suggestions for plants are pointless indoors. They need at least 1000 ft candles for 8+ hours if natural, 12+ hours if grow Lights. Don't trust your eyes, they are unreliable for determining light amounts. . Use a light meter.
