Python works in server, when web page requesting a server.
There are 2 web development frameworks for Python.

by sending text (html) response on server side to client (http) requests.

usually, templates are used, where you could "merge" python code with html stuff, but all the python is interpreted at server side, and client only receive html (without any python code)...
