Python is a versatile language, and you can indeed use it for web development. Let's get started:

  1. Choose a Framework:

    • There are two popular Python frameworks for web development: Django and Flask.

      • Django: Ideal for creating large applications with built-in features like authentication, ORM (Object-Relational Mapping), and admin panels¹.

      • Flask: Lightweight and great for smaller, simpler websites¹.

    • To install Django, run:

        pip install Django
      
    • For Flask, use:

        pip install flask
      
  2. Set Up Your Project:

    • Initialize your chosen framework in your project folder.

    • For Django, use:

        django-admin startproject projectname
      
    • For Flask, create a Python file (e.g., app.py) and set up your app.

  3. Define Your Website's Structure:

    • You'll need to use HTML to create your website's structure. Even with a framework, HTML is essential.

    • Set up your templates, static files (CSS, JavaScript), and other necessary components.

  4. Create Routes and Views:

    • Define routes (URL paths) and views (Python functions that handle requests).

    • In Django, create views using classes or functions.

    • In Flask, use decorators to define routes and corresponding view functions
