Hello,

I am thinking about teaching my students JavaScript first so that they can start creating websites and make their career, what are your thoughts?

Yes, python is very easy language for begginers and they might need it to create backend however most students don't even know the difference between frontend and backend. They just want to create few simple website. And even if I teach them python first to write APIs, I eventually have to teach them about html, css and js

You want them to create websites and consider C, but python is too much "back end"? My mate, you already decided what you want, no need for discussion (:

You can use Flask. With that you'll have your first website up and running in minutes. Then you can move on to templating in HTML and CSS.
