Is it possible to have a course like "How to make a website with database involved"?

I learnt "How to make a website" using purely HTML and CSS, and I used "CyberDuck" to upload the webpage. I learnt database, peewee here at Treehouse as well. But all I know is how to operate database locally. I may sounds dumb, but the other day i did try to use "CyberDuck" to "upload" the database file just like i did with CSS and HTML..... So I really wanna learn something about how to publicize a website(django, flask, etc) with database(not locally, but remotely). I tried google it, but explanation there is too messy and confusing...

How about the track that offers PHP and MySQL?

I doubt your host had python installed which is why the database upload didn't work. PythonAnywhere might be a good solution to start working with. I am sure it would be tricky to get started but it is free for the basics and offers some really cool services. Personally I use Openshift for all my flask hosting needs but working throught figuring out how to do it the first time made my head spin. Hosting python is tricky but PythonAnywhere attempts to fix that problem. Here is their wiki to help you find some simple tutorials.

This will take some work but I believe with some work and googling you can accomplish it! Feel free to ask more questions as I love this topic.

Goodluck! --Ricky
