> dom manipulation with Python not even the PyScript stuff which has a mandate to teach people web

I am not sure what you mean here. There’s not really much space for Python in the browser. When you mean using Python to scrape web pages, there are specific courses. The HTML web frameworks output usually has very little, if any, front-end code in tutorial in order to make the example simple, because the goal is to teach rather than provide real-world examples.

The question lists at least three frameworks that run Python in the browser.
None of which has anywhere near the traction of any JavaScript-based one, or has one comparable to any of the popular Python back-end frameworks.

Anyway, I think I didn't express myself properly - I used web framework for "backend web framework" the likes of Django or FastAPI.

Yeah - backend is all sorted with python and there's probably just enough basic level course coverage for back end web development concepts in Python. But thats useless if you want to make things people can actually see all by yourself.
