Anything you do in a browser these days will be going through JavaScript at some level, so having another language under that is an extra complication you'd likely want to avoid unless you have a hard requirement of some kind. | |

| Mar 31, 2022 at 11:11 | comment | added | DMGregory♦ | The existence of sites like Python Fiddle, myCompiler, etc. seem to answer the question "is it possible to run Python code through a browser". Note that the browser isn't actually running Python code natively in these examples. The Python code is either running on a server with the output streamed to the browser to display, or it's being emulated in JavaScript through some type of transpiling. That's enough to show technical feasibility, but it doesn't mean it's a good idea for games. Why do you want to do this? | |
