Hello. I am currently enrolled in the python degree (still a t the beginning of it) and would like to know if it is possible to do front end and back end work with django or flask. I read somewhere that ruby on rails was capable of doing front end and back end work. Thank you.

So you'll be able to do both with django and flask, provided you use a html template rendering engine.

The django or flask application can render html pages and deliver javascript to provide a single project that does both backend and front end work.
