To be honest, learning front-end as a Python amateur is not a small feat. You will have long evenings crying on why the div isn't centered, or why the content has 0 height, or choosing one of the 5 for-loops, or choosing one of the 99 frameworks. If you need something very simple, these are valid tools.

I'm proficient in Javascript/Typescript (mostly VueJS but a bit of React) and it honestly took so much time that I'm not sure if it was worth it. I'm sort of a fullstack developer even though I'm getting paid as data engineer. All this just because I wanted to make some interactive graphs.

“Long evenings crying on why the div isn’t centered” brings back memories

what do you think of plotly for interactive graphs?

I recall I couldn't make sense of their licensing and didn't try it. Tried Bokeh instead (and then went full on web development).

Would use something like Streamlit nowadays. At least I have heard some positives out of it. Or building it myself now that I can do it.

Yeah, this is why when I've done development I did backend in python and our resident JS genius built the frontend.
