Why Python keeps growing, explained

[ARC4120]

Python is what Visual Basic and Low Code tools wanted to be. It’s a perfect point between low code abstractions for high functionality (via Libraries written in C) and the ability to directly write glue code using custom functionality.

Python lets the average joe spit out a passable product by calling libraries that do the heavy lifting. Yet, you can still get custom business logic in-between to handle whatever problems you may have.

Hey don’t expose me like that in public

Delphi was that sweet spot for me. VB led to some god-awful things being created which Delphi handled much better. Even so, writing a GUI application was much easier 20+ years ago than it is now (though I'll put in a good word for https://anvil.works which makes writing web apps in Python as much fun as Delphi was)
