Si you say I should use python for websites?

[–] Nerd02@lemmy.basedcount.com 12 points 2 years ago

There's no real alternatives to JS "for websites" (meaning on the frontend, the part of your code that gets executed on your client's browser). That's what JS was invented for and what it does best.

I say "no real alternative" because technically we also have WebAssembly, which is a tool that allows you to run code written with any language on the web, but if you indeed are a beginner approaching to web development you should just forget about this for now and stick to JS as you learn.

Of course this doesn't mean that you can't use Python on your backend, your server.
