The times are a changin.
Its easy to get stuck in a rut as a programmer which is not a good place to be when technology is evolving so quickly. For web app development my stack has been predominantly cherrypy, mako templates, jquery ui, and jtable. This has given me a lean fast simple stack for tackling simple database applications. But this approach is getting kind of tired and I have been wanting to branch in to phone app development and have been looking at Polymer and Apache Cordova/Phone Gap. Polymer seems to be trending to overtake Angular.js and produces interfaces that look beautiful on the desktop and mobile devices. Cordova seems like the best ways to get browser based apps on to Android and iOS devices. It appears taking this route will mean I have to set sail and leave the comfortable waters of the Python ecosystem, the Py4A project is a contender but not a strong one compared to a Cordova /Polymer stack and there is no sense in not using the most powerful and easy to learn tool available to me.
