Portfolio Website Using Python/Flask vs. JavaScript/React?

I'm eventually looking to transition into the software development field, specifically the VR field. Right now, I "know" C++ and Python. I'd like to write my own website just with a few pages such as:

- about me (contact info/interests/etc)

- skills learnt from each project

- my hosted resume (PDF)

I'd also ideally like to have a blog.

Given my goals, does it make sense to just use Flask? I don't really care to learn JavaScript any time soon given how many other aspects of software development I need to learn. Would employers really care if I was unfamiliar with JS, HTML, CSS other than the absolute basics?

Any feedback welcome :)
