Question

web site automation

Answer 1

what exactly do you mean by automation of a website? a CMS (Content Management System) is a type of software that makes running a website easier - once you have that installed you just log in to it, pick a theme or layout and colour scheme and then upload or type in your content (pictures, videos and text that you want to appear on the site), django is one CMS that is built in python, so python knowledge is great for customising it or adding to it, but I'm not sure you actually need to know python to get started using it. A CMS is perfect for starting a new website, as it will cut out lots of work like checking it looks good in different devices and browsers, and helps you to just focus on the looks and content (which if it is a marketing website is exactly what you want)

Answer 2

ok, so it's some kind of e-commerce site, a booking site of some kind right? I've got a hunch theres probably some kind of framework or service that has all this that you can just configure or customise to your needs, although I don't personally know of one but you should try web searches like "python booking framework" and "python e-commerce". If one really doesn't exist you'll have to learn client side and server side web development. Client side is on the users device and usually done as JavaScript that is included into your HTML webpages, server side is on your server (look into hosting if you don't know how to set up your own server) and has logic for building the right html to show and for taking data that is sent back from client side. Building your own will take at least several weeks, maybe months, so only do this if there isn't an alternative.
