Hi there! Besides being able to write stand-alone apps in Python, it is also a "back end" language. What this means is that Python can be used on the server side to determine what HTML files should be served up to the client. Both Flask and Django are Python frameworks used for just this purpose.

For example, let's say your site has a basic subscription and a pro subscription. Python on the backend can authenticate the user, determine which kind of account that user has, and then serve up the HTML page it needs to for that user. But Python will not be directly in your HTML file. Rather, it programmatically determines which HTML should be served up and how it should be formatted.

Hope this helps! :sparkles:
