Upgrading Python3 - For the Web (GoDaddy)

So there was Web Scraping with Python, but what I want is the other way around: Python to html. So the answer to that is DJANGO or FLASK, server side service.

Hostmonster seems to be rather outdated with Python support; While Godaddy does give enough wiggle room for users to install and upgrade these stuff.

Using online help, I've upgraded my Godaddy account's Python from 2.6.6 to Python3.11.x:

basically:

## Download Python 3.11.x (latest version GoDaddy supports as of writing)
$ wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/...

$ tar xvzf Python-3.11.x.tgz

$ cd Python-3.11.x

## This should take you to the main Python Directory

$ ./configure --prefix=$HOME/.local

## This step sets up your configuration and makes files

$ make
$ make install

## This will create the Python files and folders, but will take a long time. The last command will install pip and setuptools which will be used to install any package you want
