Python is probably the best programming language for beginners. You can use it to build almost anything. Servers, backends, games, machine learning, web scrapers etc...

And now you can even run it in the browser using PyScript.

It is my second favourite language behind JavaScript and you could easily combine the two (React frontend and Python backend).

I just don't like it.

I genuinely don't understand how is it considered a good language for beginners when it does have one of the hardest "welcome packs" ever.

You try to install a package like, the one that parses yaml, and you'll face the virtualenvwrapperverse. A set of tools that aren't included as built-in but some way are the way to go with the dependencies.

Apart from that there is a lack of code examples in the official docs IMO

I have worked deeply with python for 3 years (at a senior soft. eng. position)

Python is a very versitile language and great for beginners, I use it for security and automation. I've built GUI apps, web apps, web scrapers, malware and system automation scripts with Python. Best of luck on your journey learning Python!

Python is good language for backend of a website but of course you can use python for any work for example: create app for desktop, data science and other work
Im currently using python for create desktop application but I also like to learn django for backend of a website and I will setup my github account that you can see myproject

Python is easy to write.

Although to more veteran programmers, the lack of a main function, almost no order can be very confusing. And when python programmers shift to something like C++, like me, would be very confused on simple things such as limits in the number of elements in an array.

But considering the syntax is so simple,

Yeah. That's why it can do AI and server in little syntax, making it so useful for large experiments!
