Seconding chalice! It's very easy to get started with and made whipping up my first lamba-powered web app (https://github.com/mozilla-services/pagerstatus https://github.com/mozilla-services/pagerstatus) a breeze. I do wish their approach to managing environment variables was more flexible, and that their deployment tooling could do a bit more (e.g. assign cudtom domains and ssl to the API gateway) for me.
