- k__ 11y agoNo, ever used them. I read that PHP was created to be a better Pearl for web-applications, so I guessed that with Pearl it did work the same. But I had the impression that languages like Python and C were used to directly develop application servers.
- toyg 11y agoIn practice, you can't: stuff like mod_python was never popular and never really gained a foothold in the shared-hosting market. Deploying a python script today means either building a VPS or hunting for a niche provider like webfaction (which will still need you to drop to the shell in most cases anyway). It's another level of skill required.
