I'm not a web developer but the times I tried to do some web development I found all the things cool kids talked about overly complicated and fell back to simple things like simple scripts on the server side and simple javascript on the client side or even semi dynamic/static webpages.

I always found interesting how the Tcl community solve things, using simple and powerful Tcl metaprogramming features (see beautiful examples on wiki.tcl.tk).

I've done a couple of small business solutions in Tcl/Tk as desktop applications. Now I feel more encouraged to try to develop new ones for the web :-)
