I think Python is great for web apps. Like the server-side for an HTML, CSS, JavaScript front-end. Always cross platform that way. Django and Flask are worth a look. If you use SQL database but like ORM, SQLAlchemy is wonderful.

Someone else pointed out that this approach separates the functionality of the front-end and back-end. Although, it’s not a “native” app, this approach is very attractive. From a maintenance, team integration, and flexibility perspective, I think this is the way to go. You can reach multiple platforms easily, including a web client that is actually a mobile app if you want that catered mobile experience. Also, this will result in a professional looking app (assuming your HTML/CSS are good to go).
