    If you're already very comfortable with Python then that should be your first choice for the backend. You can be flexible with the framework though - Flask[0] is also popular, or you can try one of the new async ones like FastAPI[1]. For the frontend I would suggest htmx[2]. You will anyway need to do some html, and htmx will save you the trouble of learning a JS framework. 0. https://flask.palletsprojects.com/en/1.1.x/ 1. https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/ 2. https://htmx.org/.

  3. Official themes from Bootstrap's creators
    Agree... Also take a look at https://themes.getbootstrap.com/ They tend to be higher quality and less packed with loads of random JS libraries than the ones on the big theme marketplaces.
