Hi!

Is it anyone who knows if its possible to run python code in glide apps? I have coded a rather simple program in python but now I want to make it possible for others to use the program and I thought glide was a good place to display the program.

If you have any idea how to do this, please let me know? Other suggestions than glide are also welcome!

//Calle

This takes some sophistication to set up, but you can use this Experimental Code Column to do this:

> **[GitHub - glideapps/glide-column-next](https://github.com/glideapps/glide-column-next)**

It runs a serverless function on Vercel, which in this repo is written in TypeScript but Vercel supports Python as well. You would create a Python function, then change the code in `index.tsx` to call your Python function over the network.
