But then you rely on Python, C, your editor with all its extensions etc.

I develop as a pure amateur and there are areas I would never get into without libraries.

First are dates, it is a world of pain. Arrow is the answer (in Python)

Then HTML, another world of pain perfectly described in a Stack Overflow answer. Beautifulsoup.

HTTP is arguably easier but requests! :)

At some point there is a risk assessment to do and one should make decisions based on that. Kudos for having gone that way yourself!
