This might be a "Let me Google that for you question", I tried.
I am looking for the "simplest" example of sending(encrypting) and
receiving(decrypting) using public key encryption. I am think of something
along the lines of having all the keys in local files and saving and
reading the message from a local file.

Possibly using cryptography library elliptic-curve
https://cryptography.io/en/latest/hazmat/primitives/asymmetric/ec/#elliptic-curve-signature-algorithms

Surly there is an example out there?
