No, it needs a server to run. This can be a python process or nginx or anything that FastAPI supports, since this seems to be build on top of FastAPI

You nailed it.

Built-in components do as much work as possible directly on the client. Any Python code however runs on the server. This makes it dead-simple to e.g. connect to your database and also gives you the full power of real CPython, not just a cut-down WASM/transpiled version.
