The author discusses improvements made to Python within a week spent in Aosta Valley, collaborating with experts from Anaconda and Cloudflare. They managed to enhance SPy in browsers and fix Pyodide on iOS. Reflecting on past predictions about Python's evolution, the article highlights the need for new Python variants to address contemporary challenges of web and mobile development. Examples like MicroPython illustrate how developers can adapt their skills in varied environments, emphasizing the growing capability of the web platform towards a democratic programming landscape.
The Web platform is shaping up to be just as powerful as Gary's vision in 2014. WebAssembly exceptions and garbage collection are generally available.
I feel like we're on the verge of true programming language democracy on the Web, which indicates a significant evolution in web development.
It's in fact necessary to sensibly compete on mobile and on the Web. New Python-like languages must be developed for modern challenges.
MicroPython is an example where Python developers can leverage existing knowledge in microcontrollers, showing the importance of language evolution.
