Options for building a python web based application

python, web

Solution

why don't you use flask in python ?

take a look at this http://flask.pocoo.org/

from flask import Flask
app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route("/")
def hello():
    return "Hello World!"

if __name__ == "__main__":
    app.run()

Problem

I am building a simple Python web application and I want it to run stand alone like SABNZBD or Couch Patato. These applications are self contained web applications. What do these products use to serve up the web interface? The application im building will do a lookup of images albums (folders) and when selected, present it a slide show kind of way. All information is in a XML file, so no database needed. My goal is to make the application as self contained as possible. I have looked at Django and it looks a bit daunting and overkill for my application, what are my other options. Thanks Darrell.
