I'm no expert but, my approach would probably be something like: Python 2x scripts for local tools (possibly Ruby, just something object oriented and readable, that is to say, not Bash) If you need a UI, I'd recommend going web only. Python and Django, or Flask. (I'd personally avoid PHP) You may also want to look at Node as a platform.
