There is a particular thrill in typing a domain into a browser and seeing something you built appear. This project gets you there. You will scaffold an Angular frontend, wire up a small Python and Flask backend, and push the whole thing live.
You start local: install Node and the Angular CLI, spin up a project, then add a Flask app that answers with "Hello, World!" Once both run on your machine, you deploy to a hosting platform, add a Procfile, and push your code. The final step is DNS: a CNAME record that connects your own domain to the deployed app. It is a small application, but it walks you through every layer of getting real software online, which is exactly the knowledge that transfers to bigger projects.

Install Node.js, then the Angular CLI with npm install -g @angular/cli. Create a project with ng new hello-world and run ng serve to confirm it works.
Add a Python backend: install Flask, create app.py with a single route that returns 'Hello, World!', and test it at localhost:5000.
Deploy to a hosting platform. Add a Procfile, commit your code with git, and push it live.
Point your domain at the app by adding a CNAME record in your registrar's DNS panel, then wait for it to propagate.
Suggestion: Give DNS changes time; they can take a while to take effect.Open your own domain in a browser and watch your Hello World page load. That is a full app, live on the internet.
