I've tinkered with php in the past but I'v also enjoyed playing around with python. I have been wanting to give python a try as a possible alternative to php but I haven't had much luck. All of the videos I find on the subject are about setting up Django or Flask. I find trying to set up a project in either one of these more troublesome than setting up a LAMP stack which I use for ALL of my php projects. Is there no way to use Python along beside Apache the way I do with PHP without having to go through all the trouble of Django or Flask?
