Python run command to launch server then continue my main program

Question

I want to use command to launch server in python code, but main program stop here.

How to modify code to let server launch then continue my main program code.

This is my python code below.

import os
os.system('/usr/local/bin/python3.7 -m pyxtermjs')
print("Hello")

This is my console output below

serving on http://127.0.0.1:5000
 * Serving Flask app "pyxtermjs.app" (lazy loading)
 * Environment: production
   WARNING: This is a development server. Do not use it in a production deployment.
   Use a production WSGI server instead.
 * Debug mode: off
WebSocket transport not available. Install eventlet or gevent and gevent-websocket for improved performance.
 * Running on http://127.0.0.1:5000/ (Press CTRL+C to quit)

Perhaps subprocess.Popen('/usr/local/bin/python3.7 -m pyxtermjs&') — user5386938

You can use a Thread to multiprocess:

import os
from threading import Thread

def pro(): # Define a function to add to the Thread
    os.system('/usr/local/bin/python3.7 -m pyxtermjs')

program = Thread(target=pro) # Define the Thread with the function

program.start() # Start the Thread

print('Hello World')

You should use subprocess.popen, like advised here

subprocess.Popen(["/usr/local/bin/python3.7", "-m", "pyxtermjs"])
