I only got a taste of web development, but I decided I should study enough to run a simple service on my own,

so I bought this book.

At first I played around with Django a bit, but it was such a batteries-included framework that it wasn't very helpful for learning.

However, if I studied to the level of building my own framework, it would start affecting my game development work,

so

I chose Flask.

For the language, I considered C#, Go, JS, and Rust, but I chose Python because it's the most versatile.

At the end of the day, languages are just tools and the fundamentals are all the same.

The reason I'm writing here while studying on my own is a personal commitment to not give up halfway,

so

I plan to study slowly and properly, and eventually write introductions and tutorials.
