#description

Python is a versatile language that can be used for a variety of tasks including web development. In this course on "Creating and Running a Simple Web Server in Python", you will learn the basics of creating a web server using Python's built-in modules.

Here's what you will learn in this course:
  1. Setting up Python environment: You will first learn how to set up your Python environment to start the development of the web server.
  1. Modules required for web server: You will learn about the required modules needed to create a web server such as socket, HTTP server, and others.
  1. Writing a basic web server: You will learn how to write a basic web server using the built-in HTTP server module.
  1. Running the web server: You will learn how to start the web server and test it locally.
  1. Configuring the web server: You will learn how to configure the web server to serve static files and handle dynamic requests using CGI.
  1. Deploying the server: Finally, you will learn how to deploy the web server on different platforms such as Heroku, Amazon Web Services, and others.

By the end of this course, you will have a good understanding of how to create a basic web server using Python and how to deploy it on different platforms. This knowledge can be used to create web applications, websites, or any other project requiring a web server.
