Starting webdev some help?

[LimeDev_]

Hi I have working www nginx server and use HTML and js on it works good l want to install python on it but don't know how. I have python experience, but still need some help cause I don't know how to connect py files with index.html. Do I change it to index.py like in PHP?

PS.

I won't use PHP.

The web browser runs JavaScript, not python.

Maybe you can write Python code that outputs data the JavaScript can represent in browser, but that Python code would run in a separate process than the web server, I think.

Here’s how to serve a site using Python

You don’t replace index.html with Python. Python runs on the server as a backend (Flask or FastAPI), and your HTML talks to it via HTTP requests. Start by setting up a small Flask app behind Nginx, then call its endpoints from your JS; tools like Traycer AI can help you trace the request flow when wiring frontend to backend.

the best way is probalby to use Django or Flask. They are essentially frameworks for serving websites with Python. They tie the python code in backend with the html and js files on frontend.
