Python is so powerful in Internet applications

I recently read an article whose main focus was on the Python community. It talked about why Python applications are so ugly?

Although his point of view is correct in some cases, the question he asked "Dear Python, why are you so ugly" is really ridiculous.

Every assumption and comparison he describes seems very stupid, and the person who wrote the article there seems to be completely unimpressed by the design level of blogs and web applications built on Python.

In order to expose the truth, according to what he said, I collected a series of applications implemented in Python, which are definitely carefully designed.

Douban

(Translator is from China) Everyone knows about Douban. Abei said this: "From a personal preference, python is more concise and suits my taste." I don’t know how much time I have saved by using abbreviation in Python. I have been typing { } ; for more than ten years, and now it’s really hard to look back. "

Do I need to continue to introduce it?

I think Path also uses Python extensively in their web applications. This product has been praised for its design and innovation.

So, those who make statements that websites written in a specific language are ugly do not make any sense. The Python community is vibrant and has a lot of aspirations and interests beyond just the pretty stuff.

There is a saying that designers make websites look beautiful and concise. This is not something that back-end engineers can write in language.
