Building Local Web Apps?

[William O'Higgins Witteman]

Does anyone know a tool that can let me build web apps for local use -
that run a webserver and a web front-end in one neat package, so I can
use the browser to build UIs rather than other tools.  Ideally,
something that I can deploy across any platform.

I'm taking a look at something called Titanium
(http://www.appcelerator.com/products/titanium-desktop-application-development/) which looks like it might work out, but I'm not sure about it yet.  I thought I'd pick the list's collective brain to see what you all think.  Thanks.

yours,

William
