No single app.
There is the Ruby On Rails "Instant Rails" for Windows. It installs everything into a directory for you. You can start creating a Rails app with a DB back end in minutes. It comes with phpMyAdmin, MySQL, Apache, Ruby and Rails and more. Combine that with One Click Installer for Ruby and you get an IDE as well. http://instantrails.rubyforge.org/wiki/wiki.pl - Rails installer for Windows http://rubyinstaller.rubyforge.org/wiki/wiki.pl - One Click installer for Ruby, RubyGems (Pakackge mgr) and FreeRide (IDE) I (can almost) gurantee you will have less headache than other OSS solutions out there. Rails gives you protection form SQL injection, XSS (Cross-site scripting) and more. Guys, it is 3 lines of code to save a complex form to a record in the DB. 4 if you want validation.
