For what I use python for on the web at this moment, I basically use Pylons and implement a RESTful API. I can then use jQuery on the front end.

stand-alone Django, GAE (and its built-in Django fragments). Database: MySQL. IDE: Emacs and Eclipse (for GAE work) That said, I miss Plone and Zope. I really wish we could return our heavyweight Java-based CMS and get our money back...

Django.

Disclaimer: We're about to launch Djangy.com, so my opinion is obviously biased.

Framework: web2py With web2py the underlying tools don't matter much. For the sake of completion: MySql, Apache, Ubuntu, jQuery, ez-css.

But you can use whatever you want.

Setup: * Pylons+SQLAlchemy+formencode+Mako+WSGI apps * PostrgeSQL * Nginx

Tools: * Virtualenv * Fabric

Best combination. Zope, Django, Web2py, web.py are just not that flexible & reliable for advanced web applications (IMHO).

Django, though I've realized that certain projects of ours could be implemented better with a more lightweight framework. Other than that, not much besides Komodo Editor and Kate and of course the rest of the usual LAMP stack.

I'm quite satisfied with Python. I can't see any reason to move to another language for general web development, but while Python is quite current and modern, it isn't esoteric, geeky or on the cutting edge. So, I'm dabbling with Clojure and Scala, specifically Scalatra and Compojure.
