Is there any way to host Discord *Python* bot on Glitch?

Hello guys!

So, I’ve made my first functional bot a few months ago (3 commands) and I haven’t really updated it. Now, I am thinking about better host. I am using Heroku currently, but I know some people who use Glitch to host their Discord bots.
For Heroku, I feel so limited and I almost got charged once. Glitch feels more friendly, at lesat from my perspective.

Anyway, I would like to choose Glitch if possible. Is there even support for Python?
I know that you can only use Javascript, but I don’t really know to program Javascript. I am also a bit new to Python, but I just want to move my current files to Glitch.
I currently have files: bot, procfile(this is Heroku’s thing), and requirements text file.

Is there any way to do that?
Thank you!

You made may day with that reply, I hope, I’ll be able to set it up. :smiley:
I am learning Python right now and it’s actually not that hard as I thought!

How would I make it that when you open a website it turns on?
I have same files as the guy that you shared his project with me and the bot is working fine!
Basically, when you visit your project’s website, it shows only “On”.
I want to change that by making my own website which would turn the bot on.
How would I do that?

For that you’d have to have html files and a more advanced server. I’d recommend node.js or php for webpages, not python.
