Pinry is a web app to create a Pinterest-like image board system.
Pinry is written in Python and works on most platforms, with Windows needing some tweaking up.
The application itself looks much like Pinterest and even has a working bookmarklet to enhance the similarity between the two.
Letterpress is a small and fast blog engine written in Python.
Letterpress uses text instead of databases — more safe, but less fun stuff to do — and uses Markdown for generating the files.
This blog engine comes with a number of useful features, such as an archive, tags, and soforth. You can use DropBox for publishing.
PredictionIO is an open source content prediction tool used for content suggestions.
PredictionIO is laced with delicious features:
It’s built on top of frameworks such as Hadoop and Cascading, and has SDKs for Java, Python and Ruby.
Clay is a rapid prototyping tool made with Python.
Clay acts like a real server, having pre-created directories which are filled with HTML files and then made available via a webserver. It uses Jinja for templating and altogether looks pretty well thought-through.
Clay can compile HTML, Markdown, CoffeeScript and SASS/LESS.
Grappelli is an admin interface for Django that features a consistent and grid-based look & feel.
Grappelli enhances the default admin interface functionality of Django with several database- and style-related tools.
Among the most impressive features are autocomplete integration, TinyMCE themes, improved collapsibles and Compass-based stylesheets.
You only need to know Python for operating Grappelli and Compass for customizing the styles.
Brython is a Python implementation adapted to the HTML5 environment.
“Adapted to HTML5″ means that it has an interface for DOM objects and events.
Although the aim — to replace JavaScript with Python entirely — is lofty at best, this could move some Python developers to the web side of things.
