Can python open a hyperlink?

[1stTimeCoding]

Hello all,

So I am new to Python and coding in general, and while I am still teaching myself some of the basics I was curious about this question. Can python open a hyperlink from a document or a webpage and if it can what kind of code should I be using? I have looked on google for an answer and I couldn't find one and I couldn't find a thread on here about it (if there is one and I missed it, I apologize and would greatly appreciate being pointed in its direction). I would appreciate any information I can get and I am sorry if this is the wrong thread forum to be posting this question in.

Clicking a link on s page makes an HTTP request to the URL. Yes, you can make HTTP requests in Python and process the responses. There are likely a number of HTTP clients you can use, but a popular one is Requests: https://docs.python-requests.org/en/master/.

import antigravity

This Module uses webbrowser.open("url") to open a new tab in a browser.

If you're using Windows, you can additionally use https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.html#os.startfile

New processes can be started with subprocess.run().

The difference is, that webbrowser.open sends a url to your default browser.
os.startfile starts the associated program belonging to the file extension. For example .docx will open Word. But this works only on Windows.

subprocess.run() starts a new process, where you have to define the executable.

I can hardly believe any of this. Also note there is Web Scraping & Web Development section of the forum
