Hey guys, I attended a local Python User Group meeting last week; the 
presentation on GAE was great; during which we walked through an example of 
pushing a local/dev Django app to GAE - brilliant.

Now that I'm inspired I'd like to dive in. I use Python to manage the Linux 
OS but I'm a total newb with web dev so I have questions.

Assumptions:

   1. All aspects will be kept open; ie: HTML5, CSS, JavaScript, Python
   2. The project will be started from scratch.
   3. A an interest in *an "As Pure As Possible" App Engine experience*. 
   These pieces have been identified to get started:
   

   - App Engine <https://cloud.google.com/appengine/> (SDK)
   - Google Web Starter Kit <https://developers.google.com/web/starter-kit/>
   - Jinja 2 <http://www.pocoo.org/projects/jinja2/> (templating)
   - JavaScript: AngularJS <https://angularjs.org/> with the possible 
   inclusion of a Classy <http://www.pocoo.org/projects/classy/> backer.
   - OAuth2 <http://oauth.net/2/> Integration (eventually)
   - Vim

Q: What is the best (supported, documented, *scalable*, most widely-used, 
etc.) framework to use with GAE?

Q: Why?

Q: Are there some other pieces of this puzzle I might be missing?

webapp2 <https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/python/tools/webapp2> is 
highlighted on the GAE > Python > Tools age but Django gets special mention 
<https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/python/tools/libraries27> as well; 
still others are supported 
<https://code.google.com/p/tipfy/wiki/AppEngineFrameworks>; it's very 
confusing.

I'm jazzed but research has become exhausting. I need to hear from the 
battle tested souls out there; essentially, those who have already "stepped 
in it". *Just a newb trying to get started on the right foot.*

Thanks in advance guys,
TT
