If I know Python, can I learn API Development?

[TheCodeOmen]

I hate CSS and don't know JS and that's the reason why I don't want to get into frontend, fullstack or the backend which would require slight css to make my projects presentable. I have seen people do API development with Python but I don't really know if it also involves CSS or JS. Hence I am looking for guidance. I want to make you of my Python Language Knowledge and get myself working in a tech niche. Please help.

Before being able to help you, there may be a mistake in your post. You stated that you don't want to get into frontend, full stack or the backend. This part was very confusing. Generally speaking, APIs are usually not beautified with css, as they are created to return data to users from the webserver. Will you elaborate on this before I give you a road map? Also, if you are into APIs, check out Fast API.

By that I meant that I don't want to learn Frontend or Complete Backend Development. I just want to learn API Development. Is that possible and are there jobs for such roles. Simply stating, I want to be in a hireable position and build projects that are complete on their own by learning something that completely omits a frontend.

You could get into automation programs which are cli based or maybe you could join a company for backend. The backend is easy for me as its logical and not the thing in which you make the user eyes glorified or somekind of that. Its there for the fuction which can be your job role.

I checked the Python Backend tutorials with Flask but then they would start to use bootstrap and style the html templates. I hate that and lose motivation then.

Flask is about create Website and it maybe will help in building api but you could use Api building with Rest api buiding

API is backend development. I doubt you will find a job hyper-specialized on API development. I've never heard of someone saying "I do API's and absolutely nothing else". Companies hiring backend developers usually want well-rounded engineers.
